All Blacks captain Richie McCaw knows that Samoa will come out firing in front of their home crowd in their historic match at Apia Park today.

McCaw says that the All Blacks are focused and if their minds are even slightly off the job, Samoa could sense an opportunity to make the occasion truly memorable.

He adds that early points will be crucial to nullify the crowd and dampen confidence around a potential upset.

McCaw says that they need to make sure they do not allow Samoa to get their tails up in front of just more than 8000 fans.

Samoa will host the All Blacks at 2pm today at Apia Park.
