Wales 14 / 10 Fiji
Fiji penalty on halfway… going off the feet.
Interesting game… Welsh forwards and set piece power, vs Fijian unpredictable offload game…
Fiji scrum inside the Welsh 22.
Fiji will want channell 1 ball from their scrums….
Must be a nightmare tackling those strong Fijian runners with the strong hips…
Last pass forward by Fiji again… otherwise it would have been a try.
You know what, I like Wales a lot, because Rugby Union is also their national sport… but I find myself baying for the Fijian free-running spirit here in this match…
Fijian committment unquestionable but the Welsh organised play is so strong.
Fiji penalty… as the gong goes… tapped and dribbled out.
Halftime
I doubt that the Fijian fitness will hold in the 2nd half!
If however they can score quite soon after the restart, they might be up to make a huge battle of this game.
2nd Half ON!
I had to get my welder out and weld a freeging garden fork at halftime… one of the pegs broken off… I was quick, hey! Hahahaha
Fiji penalty, man over the ball…
Kunatani knocks… Wales not able to counter.
Davies stabs it forward and it goes out, Fiji play quickly….
Another Fiji penalty… high tackle and a possible deliberate knock.
What can Fiji do from this lineout?
Wales pilfer the ball, 10m from their own line and clear to touch.
