    Is it just me, or is watching the pool games in world cups really frustrating? The underdogs get in positions to cause upsets then fall away at the end of the game and lose.

    It's just you

    @Anonymous totally agree..the real key figure for me in the 2nd half for Fiji was the halfback..unfortunately he’s been bloody poor..to just kick the ball for touch was just playing rugby back into Australia’s hands..you are better off trying to carry outside of their 22 ..and trying to create something..

    Pity that Nadolo "retired" just before the RWC, he could have made a difference in this match with some of his play like when he was a Crusader.

    @Nepia He's had an awful lot of serious injuries the last few years. Maybe he wasn't up to it anymore.

    No ball for Fiji in that second half killed them.

    Why we tried to keep being smart arses instead of winning the game is beyond me. Result.

    Fucks sake Fiji play again Wednesday. That is bullshit

    @NTA Yeah games are much tighter affairs come WC time against tier 2 nations and the best way to play them out of games is by doing the basics right and keeping things simple. Having said that, I thought the Aussies did well in the end, weathering the early storm thrown at them. A few iffy moments in there for them but as the Fijians began to tire, they started to bully them at set piece time.

    They only play Uruguay.

    Wallabies will be pleased with that. Dominant second half. Genia should have come on much earlier.

    So how many weeks will Hodge be out for for the high shoulder charge that forced the Fiji seven from the field?

    An early red card would certainly have changed the game too
