Can't believe 10 of y'all voted Fiji - I get going against the grain, better odds etc, but I'd bet my left nut on Oz winning this comfortably.

Just like there were more South Africans than Scotsmen?

Not South Africans, just guys from lesser known Dutch sounding clans from the highlands.

Don’t forget Sione from the Tuipulotu clan too

You do have to hand it to Jack Dempsey though, most guys start playing for a big team then move to the minnows, not the other way round.

Not wanting to be an arrogant Kiwi supporter and loving watching Fiji play, but I'll take the Haka against the Fijian Cibi any day

Is there an anti-helium that they can give the female ITV commentators please?

My ears are bleeding and the dog won’t settle

@MiketheSnow

Yeah, she's grating isn't she? Think Rikki Swannell is second only to Andrew Cotter but this woman's voice could shred carrots. Pity as what she says is pretty good.

She’s god awful.

Fiji need to stand deeper, so many times they are stopping to catch a pass.

Could a ref explain how that was ok from Oz on the ground?

stodders is offline

@MajorRage according to ITV comms, he was playing the arm, not the ball. Think they need their eyes tested.

Still on the ground so should be out of the game

@KiwiMurph agreed. I liked that they came up with a reason for saying it was ok πŸ˜‚

Yeah I heard that and I call bullshit.

TMO cleared it tho, so the question is, why?

Fiji playing well. Should have taken the PK rather than the fluffed line outs.
