Samoa could be facing a lengthy absence from the international stage after the country's government withdrew recognition and financial support from its governing body.
World Rugby has warned that continued government interference could result in Samoa being suspended from international rugby for up to four years unless the governance issues are resolved.
A ban would have major consequences for Manu Samoa, potentially ruling them out of international competitions and disrupting the development of rugby in the Pacific nation.
What impact would a four-year ban have on Samoan rugby?
