Fiji win 19 - 5 despite a YC
New Zealand don't look coached they're that bad.

Knewstubb deciding to shit the bed all over the park didn't help. About 3 crucial errors from him then Rokolisoa following suit sealed the game. Without those, they looked well in the game IMO.

BTW fuck Foxtel. Had it on in the background awaiting the NZ QF and all of a sudden it's showing an old interview with David Campese from the Back Page and I'm trying to find live wcore updates.
(Fox may have switched to another channel but I only thought of that about half an hour later... and by then didn't care) ...

Not for the first time either.

That was an odd game. NZ phasing in and out of that game, at times looking like they had money on Aus, for example, why was Mikkelson lying on the ground watching for the Aus try to draw level?
Good to get the win, but definitely didn't look to be 100% application.
Apart from Webber, without him we lose that.

@Bones I heard part of an interview on the radio earlier today (I don't know who it was) and it was mentioned that there are a few players playing with "niggles". So some of them are not 100% fit. I didn't hear names.
@Stargazer that would make sense, Mikkelson has been making it look really hard from what I've seen this tournie. Curry has looked off the pace and hobbled off. Even Ware doesn't look to have his usual game breakiness.

Geez, those Fijians make it look so easy!
They also oddly get away with a lot of breakdown shenanigans that other teams don't.

I really don't get this NZ team, so fucken inconsistent, so frustrating. Get off to a great start, then play like a bunch of amateurs. Have the ball for ages and do absolutely nothing with it, apart from predictably send the second to last man into the tackle, although seems no one on the nz team can predict it so they get turned over.
