    It’s a settled Aussie side which hasn’t been a feature for a while.

    The backline has a good balance and if given ball should get point points.

    If Fiji can keep their structure defensively and not turn the ball over (which has been a problem for them) it could be closer than some predictions I’ve seen.

    I don’t think that happens, but there have been some key changes to the structures of how Fiji play which is reflected in a better run and managed union.

    Looking forward to this. Have absolutely no idea of the strength of Fiji but hoping they can throw caution to the wind.

    First of many games that we have to watch online on a desktop computer. I much prefer watching on tv, but ours is too old. I hope Spark Sport is doing its job and that the streaming will be good.

    Your tv doesn't have HMDI inputs?

    Not a fan of the camera work. The players look like ants when the shot is zoomed out.

    Good composure and ball retention by Fiji. Not long ago with that amount of possession they would’ve just gone wide.

    3-0 Fiji

    Speaking of homeless drunks how did they select the host broadcaster pool?

    Karl Te Nana? Melodie Robson resurfacing? Mehrts? Sean Maloney?

    As an overseas viewer can anyone tell me if TJ has commentated an M10 Cup game this weekend? Please say no.

    Nice kick off by Lilo and catch by Hodge.

    Poor execution out wide though.

    I thought he was offside but could be wrong.

    Well they can't use Sky commentators.
