Two things very evident from this match.
Fiji would have been a better addition to the Rugby Championship than Argentina.
Wales have weathered a lot of storms this season. Showed their mettle under intense pressure.
Not according to SANZAR bank accounts. Playing out of where?

All these Welsh players will have good careers after rugby working at the airport waving in planes.
Fiji’s whole game plan should be geared towards getting Radradra and Tuisova into one-on-one situations because every tine they’ve touched the ball the welsh defenders haven’t wanted to know about them
No shame in that, one's a truck, the other one has jet shoes. And is built like a slimmer truck

Nope. Can't get their players from Europe regularly enough

Radradra is the best wing in world rugby by the length of the flemmington straight
Deservedly MotM.
Pity he didn't get a scholarship to a New Zealand school... 😉

@ACT-Crusader They could be waiting a while. If only they produced them like they do wingers.....

Should invite Fiji in now anyway. 5 teams, none of this home and away, play each other once, winner takes all.
They have been a real pleasure to watch in this tournament.

Great game to watch despite the refereeing. Well done to both sides.

Yep Awesome game one of the best so far
-
Fucking great game of rugby. Thank you both sides.
Fiji with a bunch of highlight reel players, but killed by a lack of discipline, and a 10 who is still shit.
Wales are a great side. They have fantastic players, and they are mentally very tough. I like them.
What I am going to do with my Wednesday nights when this kind of entertainment isn't on offer?

@mariner4life don't you AFL fans have draft news to watch?

Yeah they haven’t had a good one since Nicky Little and you probably have to go back a few years before that to find another.
They produce good halfbacks and outside backs.
They seem to have found a good 2nd 5 in this squad.

Jesus Stuart Barnes can barely hide his contempt for Wales. He thinks fuck all of them doesn't he?
He's basically calling them untalented plucky upstarts. Does he think it's still the 90s?
-
Hats off to Fiji.
They could easily have won that. And at one point I thought they would.
Ultimately our fitness and bench saw us home.
Thrilling contest which may have finished our WC aspirations.
If Biggar and Jonathan Davies are out for the expected France QF we'll be lucky to advance.
Not bringing a third outside half may come back to haunt us. Especially one - Jarrod Evans - who can play 10, 12 and 15.

We're talking about how Dusty hasn't picked up his car from the MCG yet #legendofthesess

Such a fluffybunny. He's a yellow toothed blight in that panel team. Making MARRRRDO seem knowledgeable was thought impossible but the fat cock has somehow managed it.
With Butler commentating some of the games, it makes watching extremely difficult.

He will change his tune pretty quickly if it is three SH teams and Wales left in the quarters....

I’m still baffled by the TMO forward pass call when they were checking for an early tackle and not a try scoring play.
That makes no coherent sense for how a game should flow.
I think we can accept that forward passes are missed in general play (I think it even happened once in 2007 legend tells me), but why is it that something that is only a minor infringement (scrum) given greater scrutiny then full arm penalty infringements. I think we accept that full arm penalty infringements are missed but why aren’t TMO’s looking at that if they are going to the trouble of looking at that when called on to look at other matters.
Is there a specific directive that I’m unaware of that was given to TMOs and onfield refs that says they must be looking at forward passes in all instances
