Pampas XV undefeated
The Argentine team beat Samoa A, 38-24, in the match at the Royal Millitary College in Canberra, in his third appearance in the Pacific Rugby Cup 2014. This was the third consecutive win of the Argentine team in the competition:
But that was not all, once again, the Samoan violence was present. Since the event doesn't have much marketing, there are no photos of Samoan violence, but then I show them the messages Twitter account a prestigious Argentine journalist, specializing in rugby, which is following the competition:
He wrote:
"Pampas XV won but during the game, Islanders hit dirty and unfair way the Argentines"
"So serious was the incident, that the Samoa's coach hit his own player as punishment for hitting his opponents so hard"
"To my knowledge, an Argentine player has the eye closed, by Samoans blows, and another Argentine player has 6 stitches"
"And they went out injured two Argentine players (Montoya and Iglesias) with strong shock in his eyes"
Game Overview:

Samoans have always been violent, if there are fights, you will see a Samoan in it. Their violence is so famous, that even some have dubbed the dirty tackles under the name of: "Samoan Tackle". Its something that Samoa should improve, rugby itself is a violent sport with a lot of contact, but you can't abuse it. Its impossible to play our sport if you don't have self-control and respect for the opponent. If all rugby players we hit unchecked, our sport would seem a battle where all that matters is to hit your opponent.
Cheers
