What: 2014 Four Nations Test match
Who: Australia v Samoa
When: Sunday, November 9 – 4.00pm (AEDT)
Where: WIN Stadium
I Can Watch It On: Channel Nine

What did they do last week? 
The Kangaroos squeezed past England to record a controversial 16-12 come-from-behind win over England in Melbourne last Sunday. They lost to the Kiwis 30-12 in the opening round.
Samoa led for most of the contest against New Zealand in Whangarei but finished on the wrong end of a 14-12 scoreline. They also gave England a scare in the first round, going down 32-26.
 

Things you need to know 
Australia have been forced to tinker with their pack after back-rower Beau Scott was ruled out with a hamstring injury suffered against England. Scott is expected to be available for the final in Wellington next Saturday if the Kangaroos qualify. Sam Thaiday shifts from prop to the back-row, with Josh Papalii to start up front. Robbie Farah, Aidan Guerra and Ryan Hoffman have been named in the 17, with Ben Hunt, David Klemmer and Matt Moylan also named on an extended bench. The Kangaroos are third on the ladder with a minus 14-point differential. If the Kiwis beat England on Saturday any win by the Kangaroos will be enough to make the final. If England beat the Kiwis Australia will have to beat Samoa by at least 16 points.
Samoa have made two changes with Antonio Winterstein returning on the wing for Tautau Moga while Pita Godinet starts at hooker for Sauaso Sue who drops to the bench. Matt Parish's side can still make the final but they need the Kiwis to topple England and then must beat the Kangaroos to make it.

Reason to watch 
Samoa have been a revelation this tournament. They've thrown the ball around in attack and belted the living daylights out of both England and the Kiwis in defence. Whatever the result this will be an entertaining clash.

Reason to turn away 
If the Kangaroos loose it'll be the first time they have missed the final of a major tournament since 1954. Watching Pakistan belt Michael Clarke and co in the cricket was embarrassing enough but a loss to Samoa this weekend would be even more disastrous for Tim Sheens and the players involved.

Say what

"I have said to the guys we are not playing in the final yet, we have a big game this week and so have England. New Zealand looked scratchy on the weekend against Samoa, Samoa really played strongly and our issue is we have to lift to beat that side. 
"I can't control what is going to happen in the other game ... we still have to win the game and whatever happens happens," – Kangaroos coach Tim Sheens.

Final Word 
The bookies are tipping an easy Kangaroos win but this game should be a genuine contest. Much will depend on the result of the New Zealand v England game on Saturday. If the Poms beat the Kiwis Samoa can't make the final so would be playing for pride while the Kangaroos would need to win by at least 16 points so would look to put a big score on the Samoans. But Sheens' charges have been average at best so far this tournament while the Samoans have played beyond all expectations and should really have won both of their games so far. We expect them to be right in this contest once again but the class of Cameron Smith, Cooper Cronk and Greg Inglis will drag Australia home in the final 20. Kangaroos by 10.

The Kiwis were pounded and put through the ringer in a 14-12 win over Samoa in Whangarei last Saturday. They trailed for most of the game but a Shaun Kenny-Dowall try in the corner sealed the win with a couple of minutes left on the clock.

England were unlucky in a 16-12 loss to the Kangaroos in Melbourne on Sunday. The Poms held a lead with 20 minutes left, but Ben Hunt was brilliant off the bench for Australia. A controversial last minute TMO decision when Ryan Hall looked to have got a finger to the ball in goal consigned England to a loss.  
Last time they met 
At Wembley last year in the Rugby League World Cup semi-final – and it was one of the best games of international rugby league ever.  
England had a lead with seconds remaining, but Shaun Johnson stepped through some tiring defense to level the scores. His conversion after the siren sent the Kiwis to the final.  
What you need to know 
Interesting game this one. You ready? Ok. 
If the Kiwis win or draw, they’re into the Four Nations final. If New Zealand loses by 10 or more, England leapfrog them on the table and the Kiwis will rely on Samoa stopping Australia clawing back the points differential (currently NZ is +20 and Australia is -14). 
England needs to win to make the final, pure and simple. But even if they only win by a narrow margin, a big Australia win over Samoa could see the English miss out.  
If England loses to New Zealand, they’ll be praying for Samoa to narrowly beat Australia to get a spot in the final in Wellington next week. 

Hooker Issac Luke and winger Manu Vatuvei returned to the Kiwis side last week. Kieran Foran took a heavy hit to his ribs and stayed keeled over on the turf for a while but is a tough bugger. We’re sure he’ll play this weekend. 
Reasons to watch 
Like the All Blacks-England match later in the night, it’s gonna be a humdinger. England were desperately unlucky last week, will still feel the semi-final loss and are intent on making the final.  
Are rare rugby league match in Dunedin should be well attended by both sets of fans.  
Reasons to turn away 
The Kiwis were off the pace against Samoa. If they aren’t ready and firing, they could easily lose by more than 10 and see a once sure finals berth slip away.  
Final instructions 
This match could go anywhere. Both sides were pushed by Samoa while New Zealand played out of their skins to beat Australia. The English could’ve done the same thing to the Roos last weekend but couldn’t maintain the rage for 80 minutes. 
Both sets of forwards are big. And scary. Both sides have world class wingers in Hall and Vatuvei. Both have halves combinations with grittiness, flair and NRL premierships (Gareth Widdop and Kieran Foran). Both fullbacks are creative and explosive.
