Scrums are such a stupid penslty option when chasing. Eats. Up. Time.

"Full credit to the referee" Righto.

That's right you muppet, blow for a penalty when the Fiji scrum is rumbling towards the line.

Great try Fiji

@frugby Persistently supporters of inept refereeing

Take a bow Warren Gatland. This has been a coaching mater class.

He’s had a shocker.

The game started at 7.00am and it's now ten to nine (that's 110minutes) which seems to be an awful long time for an 80 minute game, even allowing for the elongated half time/advertising breaks.

I really feel for Fiji .. almost certainly they had a black mark put against them after sorting out England - Carley has been farcically one sided tonight

And now game is safely in the Welsh hands... the predictable flurry of penalties comes

Come on Fiji!!!!!

It’s been a masterclass in soccer style cheating.

Icing on the cake.

Farce. Bye Carley

He's looking for any excuse not to award the try.

Never thought I'd say it, but I'd have have sympathy for Fiji if they walked off the field

Double movement

Relatively predictable I guess

Another warning…

Another multiple warning. Shocking.

Another warning, are you kidding?

No someone goes off now you moron!

YC too surely?

He put his arm out to signal penalty advantage so must have been a card coming.

Why, just because they scored does that negate the card.

Should be 15 vs 13 fir end of match

Oh, another warning after the 5th penalty. Are Fiji close to the line or something?

TBP and LBP?

that is farking outrageous. rubbish card at the other end and nothing but repeating cynical plays and NOTHING?!

There will be literally no consequence for what has in all probability being the most blatant one eyed refereeing display I've have seen in 40 years....

The Fiji card given for so little and the Welsh getting away with so much.....

Saving grace is the ABs were not involved so we cant be blamed for being sore losers.

Can we hope for a miracle finish?

Try line open and he knocks on

Lucky lucky Wales

No no no…. just dropped a possible quarter final.

Ref breaths a sigh of relief.

I like mikethesnow but wales are such a cheaty team and the ref had a shocker.

FIFY. Can't blame Wales for that level of reffing ineptitude.

What a hell of a game of rugby. Geez even as a neutral I am having heart palpitations!!
Great stuff!

You can come out from behind the sofa now @MiketheSnow

Fiji have to beat Australia you think. Just can’t see Giorgia beating wales they were dire.

World Rugby can't have the "South Sea Islanders" getting too uppity, so they'll be pleased with Carley, Lord of Gloucestershire, delivering the desired result.

Bugger.

Gave up on this after Wales scored that last one at 32-14 to get ready for work.

Came back with time up ... what a terrible way for Fiji to finish.

I actually thought the Fijian yc was almost a penalty try to be honest, but I can see why when we are into game and in heat we see it slightly different?
Let's face it , hard not to love Flying Fijians, but really as a neutral, I really enjoyed both teams play.
(and the commentators even)

Ref was utterly shocking & that's from a Wales supporter.
Dee or Biggar should've been carded for persistent infringement.
Lucky win but I'll take it, couple of decent tries. We were always going to be under the cosh for long periods, they have some truly gifted individuals.
