GO FIJI!
I you think Cheslin Kolbe is small have a look at Wales fullback for this match Mathew Morgan – 1.72m tall and weighs 73 kg, he is being likened to Shane Williams but even Williams was a bit stockier.
@ Bullscot:
He looks like he mostly plays flyhalf? I think that is where Cheslin will be better suited as well, he has a good boot and great vision… but seems to have caught the kanipass sickness down there in the cape. 😆
3 @ MacroPolo:
Yes but don’t know much about how he does as he plays for Bristol in England and I mostly get to see the PRO12 here. He will be happy that Nadolo isn’t playing today could have been a mismatch bigger than the famous Lomu/Catt one from RWC ’95. But he does have really big wingers in North and Cuthbert who can fall back to help him, especially on the high ball.
Without Nadolo and Matawalu think this Fiji team is unfortunately not going to keep Wales from winning.
Hellloooooooooo

Wales immediately pressing at the Fiji line!

Great Fiji defence, but Wales are pushing very hard!

Wales break almost right through to score, Fiji gets a penalty on their own 5m line…
Wales absolutely butcher a try
Nice break there by Cheslin gained a lot of ground good tracking back in the end by Fiji to stop what would have been a certain try

@ Bullscot:
How are things up there? Rugby fever huge in Glasgow today. Absolutely awesome vibe for this weekend. Scots really up for the match. Doing business has never been better!

@ Just For Kicks:
Hi JFK good here and you? Enjoy the atmosphere there it is quite dead as far as rugby goes here. Looking forward to going to Newcastle are you going too?
No try AND a Fiji penalty for a neck roll… against Bradley Davies!
@ grootblousmile:
That’s fine my time can be min at times as you know so got that one up as quick as possible rather than not at all
@ grootblousmile:
Afternoon Smiler
@ Bullscot:
Unfortunately not. Couldn’t afford tickets. Will be going to Walkabout in Glasgow instead. Atmosphere should be pretty good. Enjoy the match. Win or lose-(and it’s both for both of us), it will be a great match
The Fijian players are such natural athletes!!
… and big buggers, all of them!
Wales seem tired
No ?
