Manu Samoa rugby coach Seilapa Mapusua says the cancellation of their Northern Hemisphere tour is a major blow less than two years out from the Rugby World Cup.
The Manu were scheduled to play three tests in November against Georgia, Uruguay and Spain before a final clash against the Barbarians at Twickenham.
But Lakapi Samoa announced on Monday the tour would not proceed, in line with the Government's current health and travel advice.
Our sports journalist Vinnie Wylie is with me, Kia ora Vinnie so very disappointing for Manu Samoa?
