Scotland have improved hugely recently. They've moved their playing style on massively, similar to many teams such as England, to play a quicker game. I think if they could just cut the handling errors and maybe get one over a decent team it would give them the confidence to really move on.

That was a cracker again.

In my eyes Fiji have a couple of players who would get in any side in the world. Radrada and Tuisova on the wings are class 😎

Thankfully they don't seem to be able to carry those big frames around for 80 minutes.

That was a good game, don’t know how Wales quite managed that. I think Biggar is at risk of getting into trouble after that impact.

Hope the England game isn’t cancelled this weekend.

The Kiwis will walk imo.

England still not shining, French are at war with eachother, the Welsh have a few injuries now, the Aussies got beat by the Welsh, and the Irish just don't look anywhere close imo. The South Africans I haven't seen much of, but perhaps the closest to challenging the Kiwis.

However, I still think the Welsh could cause some upset.

All of that!!

Especially the Welsh... hands down the most ‘dangerous’ team in World Rugby

It was 10 months ago but the point still stands, Fiji will beat one of NZ/SA/AUS before the next world cup and have some of the best players in the world. Notably Radrada and Tuisova who are George North plus size wingers and would get in any side in the world.

ETA - it's also worth noting that current England players Cokansiga, Rokodguni and Nathan Hughes are all Fijians by birth and qualify for England ( or any home nation I assume ) through parents Military Service.
