Wow we got lucky with the pool distribution. Fiji could be dangerous and Wales are good but Georgia and Uruguay should be easybeats.

Nah, Fiji and Georgia are both decent, but they'll be scrabbling for a distant 3rd place spot here. Aus and Wales are imperfect sides, but they're a substantial cut above the rest. Still better than the NZ/SA pool. What a waste of time that will be.

Oh man I have no idea if it can last but Fiji have taken Australia to the cleaners in this opening 10 minutes. Winning the hits, winning the breakdown, and a bit of magic on the outside to score.

0-8 to the islanders so far

Yeah that's made my mind up, it definitely won't last. If Fiji can't hold up a scrum then they will keep conceding since they try to offfload everything and knock it on.

But it was a beautiful 10 minutes

I've seen almost no rugby in like two years but Australia still have the same lack of basic skill discipline as ever, it seems

It does have the "Aus runs over an exhausted Fiji in the last 20" feel but Fiji look much the more dangerous side to me still

Fiji making all sorts of problems, Australia doing their best to throw it away...dumb decision after dumb decision right now

Fiji look organised and strong in defence as well, Aus almost seem surprised when not busting through the first tackle of 6'5 Fijian muscle.

Fiji do brilliantly to turn Aus over again, then keep charging in on a secure ruck and gift away a penalty.

Rough with the smooth, innit

Fiji will want to get it out asap for half time. Aus look the business all of a sudden.

Dumb decisions have been hurting Australia. Still think we'll win though, especially given that Fiji looked to run out of steam later in that half.
