While Samoa and Fiji were getting ready to lock horns on the field, the fun, carnival-like night had long started for the fans.

The Samoans were all decked out in their proud blue colours as they supported their team.

In the end, Samoa got the fourth and final ticket to the Four Nations at the end of the year with a 32- 16 victory over Fiji at Penrith's Sportingbet Stadium.

But there was no denying that rugby league – as it always seems after games like this – was the real winner in all of this.

Above are some photos from the night, courtesy of Samoa Rugby League.
