Samoa bounce back with win over Canada in Vannes

Samoa bounced back from defeat to Italy to beat Canada 23-13 in Vannes, France on Friday night. Canada couldn't take advantage of all their chances, while Samoa snapped up two tries to Anthony Perenise and Winston Stanley. Conor Trainor scored Canada's only try. Samoa had some off-field issues in the lead up to this match, as they threatened to boycott next week's match against England because they were unhappy with their management style and pay, but that was averted due to the intervention of the IRB. The win should lift the spirits, and hopefully next weekend we'll see a strong Samoan side…
