<p>Wait, so according to the commentators, Team GB don't peak between Olympic games? Not even for the World Champs?<br><br>
That sounds kind of... strange.</p>

<p>Spoke to my namesake at his grandmother's farm just outside Denerau just before the game started (he has taken the day off school!!!!!!!!!!). To say he was excited would be an understatement. You can just imagine how excited a rugby loving nine year old boy in Fiji will be now.</p> -

It seemed to be largely English players. I see there's a couple of Welsh/Scottish in the squad though. Doesn't matter, they've still being trounced. <br><br>
Congrats Fiji, they win their first Olympic medal and its gold.
