Emotions are high ahead of this weekend's Rugby World Cup qualifying match between Samoa and Tonga.
The match, to be played in Waitakere on Saturday, was originally scheduled for June, but was postponed because of Covid-19.
Now the two teams are just grateful for the opportunity to play.
Although as Talei Anderson reports, it hasn't been easy.
