RWC Week 5: Fiji v Portugal

[gt12]

This Fiji team has just shovelled ball across and looked every bit like a Fiji team of the past. Really disappointing.

On the other hand, the Portuguese team have been excellent.

[sparky]

Portugal leading Fiji 17-10 with 21 minutes to go.

Aussie might make the QFs.

@sparky this is still enough though for Fiji to stumble in.

[Steven Harris]

How thick is the Fijian leadership ,take the 3 ,you only need a bonus point

[gt12]

If they took the 3, got some territory, they'd get another 3, do that 3 times and they could still win. How dumb are these guys?

[gt12]

I've seen some dumb ruck entries in my time but that is right up there. You fucking muppet.

[Gunner]

Think Fiji just need to be patient and accurate, points will come.

[gt12]

My god this ref is letting it go, isn't he, that was two forward passes and an offside in 30 seconds.

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris And again.

[Gunner]

That clean out was the dumbest thing you’ll ever see on a rugby field.

WTF is going on? How did this rabble beat Oz?

It's only Australia.

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer if they miss by a bonus point only themselves to blame

[gt12]

Seriously though, Fiji have been great (until this game) with not playing in their own half, and accumulating points when they visit the other team's half. They've given up on both and are just hoping for individual brilliance. Terrible.

[antipodean]

Fiji playing like they spent the last week on the piss.

[akan004]

Why aren't the coaching team sending them a message to take the 3? I would if my captain is as thick as shit.

[mariner4life]

Loving this rangy Portuguese openside.
He's having a stormer

[gt12]

Worked hard for that, but looks like they're there now.

[Higgins]

Fiji hanging in there with their required point but are down seventeen ten with about ten minutes to go. On the brighter side they have just scored 15 - 17

[Steven Harris]

Even if they do ,an abject England will still be too strong for this Fijian team
