Glad we won but feel really bad for Fiji.
Be nice if we both qualify.Comment

FFS Fiji are better ranked than Wales and were tipped to win. They threw on some 120 kilo plus tanks and it almost worked. Who played the better rugby? wales did. They scored more and kept Fiji out who are a damn good team.Comment

Re: About time we had a rugby World Cup thread?
Brilliant spectacle but Wales rugby feel like City recently.. guaranteed to crumble or at least make things far more interesting late in the game than it should be after getting themselves into a good situation.
Fiji can feel very hard done by the refereeing in the last 20 mins IMO... 3 straight infringements right under the posts followed by a Fiji knock on, should surely have been a penalty try and a yellow in there somewhere.Comment

Important win. Thought we had a fair bit of luck there though.
Must have been 10+ infringements on our own line, with 1 yellow and no penalty tries. Very lucky the ref didn't take a more serious line.Comment

Re: About time we had a rugby World Cup thread?
Agreed. We were comfortably the better team after we scored our final try but our replacements are not up to the required standard and Fiji were able to wrest control of the match back from us. Still, as you said Fiji are ranked higher than Wales, they've just beaten England at Twickenham and are a very very difficult team to play against. We'll done Wales !Originally posted by ToTaL ITK View PostComment

Good entertainment that.
Fiji are a great side to watch but they give away the ball too often.
I honestly thought Fiji would cut loose after their two first half tries but some fantastic tackling was enough.
People including the commentators and pundits saying we got lucky with the referee regarding possible penalty tries but I thought he favoured them more than us, particularly in the last ten minutes.
Anyway a brilliant defensive effort by Wales and that was a huge test against a very good team.
Should take some confidence moving forward.Comment

I fancy the semi finals coming.Comment

Fantastic game of Rugby that is. One thing rugby does have over football is it can go from win to defeat in one move, bypassing draws.
Such a great end to a sunny weekendComment
