The mighty warriors of Fetu Samoa have stamped their ticket to the Women's World Cup after a nail-biting victory over Fiji Bulikula.
Captain Annetta-Claudia Nu'uausala led her squad to a stunning 16-12 comeback win, ending Samoa's lengthy drought between World Cup appearances.
It was a performance for the ages, reminiscent of the glory days of Rugby League when legends roamed the field.

But like true champions, they dug deep and fought back with Nu'uausala scoring two critical tries, sending a surge of energy through the team and carrying them to victory.
It was a momentous occasion, one that will be etched in the annals of Rugby League history.
Next up for Samoa is a promotion-relegation match against either New Zealand or Papua New Guinea, where they will battle for a spot in the prestigious Pacific Championships competition.
The road to glory is never easy, but Samoa is ready to take on all challengers and prove themselves on the world stage.
Meanwhile, Fiji's hopes now rest on their performance in the upcoming World Series, where they will face tough competition from Ireland, Nigeria, and the winners of the Americas qualifying tournament.
It's a tough road ahead for the Bulikula, but in Rugby League, anything is possible with determination and skill.
Nu'uausala's heroic efforts were matched by her teammate Evah McEwen, whose powerful runs set the tone for Samoa's victory.
And let's not forget about Jetaya Faifua, whose entrance off the bench turned the tide of the game in Samoa's favor.
It was a team effort, a display of sheer grit and determination that exemplifies the spirit of Rugby League.
Despite a few missed opportunities early on, Samoa showed resilience and never gave up.
It was a true test of character, and Samoa emerged victorious, paving the way for a new era of success and glory.
The Rugby League world is buzzing with excitement as Samoa prepares to take on the world's best and prove their worth on the global stage.
The future is bright for the warriors of Fetu Samoa, and they are ready to conquer whatever challenges come their way.
