RLWC 2021 Quarter Finals Discussion

Come on Fiji, bring this tournament to life and win this.

 

[Sproj]

Great take by Mulitalo.

 

[Sproj]

Ok, here's your chance.

 

[Super Freak]

Come on Fiji.

You gotta score here.

 

[Sproj]

Here's...you second chance?

 

[Sproj]

Oh no no no.

 

[Super Freak]

And it's a Bulldog that blows their chance.

 

[Super Freak]

Well played Fiji.

You got fucked by the video ref. But you gave NZ a good fight.

 

[Sproj]

What the heck is Fiji doing this last two minutes?

They so didn't. Blame themselves for that stupid strip attempt.

 

[Fernando]

Great effort, very brave, but totally brainless last 10 mins from Fiji.

 

[Culhwch]

Yeah, I can't be mad at that strip. It's the left hand that dislodges the ball.

Shame, would have loved to see Fiji win.

 

[Kimlo]

Great game. Love the world cup.

 

[Sproj]

Yeah Wakeham screwed up dropping it but man, that try saver might well be play of the tournament.

 

[Viti]

As a Fijian I can only be proud of the boys efforts today. It was the little touches of class that has always been the difference but to get into the grind against a top level team and come out with a result like that is all you can ask for.

 

[Kimlo]

How good was that.

 

[Fernando]

Brainless is probably too harsh, just really wanted them to win. But in the last ~10 minutes there was the strip, they took a hit up on the 5th tackle 10m out from the try line, dropped the ball on the 1st tackle 10m out from the try line, and the winger tried grabbing the ball over the sideline when it would've been a handover anyway.

I think they just panicked because they also probably didn’t expect to be in up to their eyeballs at that point. The best international game in a looooooooong time and an advertisement why it is so important players get to choose to play for their heritage nation.
