The Samoan community in Hawke's Bay has taken to the streets to celebrate one of the greatest upsets in Rugby League World Cup history - with celebrations expected to continue into the week.
Hawke's Bay has a large Samoan population and it came out in big numbers over the weekend, with parades and gatherings staged in Napier and Hastings.
The Samoan men's team defeated England 27-26 during the early hours of Sunday morning (NZT) in their semi-final match-up at the World Cup, held in England.
It is the first time an island nation has reached the final of a Rugby League World Cup.
