Expect the Samoans to come out firing when they battle it out against the Vodafone Flying Fijians for Pacific rugby supremacy at Churchill Park tomorrow.

Coach Seilala Mapusua says pride is on the line, as the match against Fiji is the battle of the Pacific.

Mapusua has named his strongest side for their final PNC match with players like captain Michael Ala'alatoa getting another start at prop.

Former All Blacks and three-time Super Rugby title-winning Crusaders loose forward, Jordan Taufua has been named to start after he made his debut against Tonga last week.

Samoa will take on Fiji at 3.30pm tomorrow.

The first match will see Tonga taking on Australia A at 12pm.
