These brit pundits were sometimes embarassing to listen: @13:31 "Very good defence from England" then the Fijians progress on 15 meters with English players on their legs. @14:25 "It's just mistake after mistake from England" rather to appreciate the intelligent offloads game from Fiji @16:00 "For Fiji, it's the greatest moment in their rugby history" Yeah, really? Just because they've beaten England of Borthwich during a friendly. Fiji beating Wales in 2007 and qualifying for the New format World Cup 1/4 finals was far more important for them. It seems more acceptable and patronising to say "England was bad" rather to say "Fiji plays good", which could be summarized like "they've beaten us because we were bad" rather to applaude Fiji, Samoa, Tonga improving tactics with far less money, time and helps than "Top" Nations.

Absolutely right. As far as the greatest ever Fiji rugby victory is concerned...and there have been a few over a 100 years of Fiji playing test rugby..not really sure where this would rank. Is it better than Fiji thrashing Los Pumas in the '87 world cup?, or downing Wales in '07 in Nantes or will it compare to Fiji putting 50 points on Scotland in Suva in '98 or putting 50 points on Italy in Italy in '99 or beating France in Paris in 2018? Who knows. I would argue that if you ask any Fiji fan what the greatest victory in Fijis rugby history is, many would say when they beat the British and Irish Lions in Suva in 1977. Fiji also have multiple victories against the Maori all blacks(home and away) as well as the Barbarians. There are only 3 national teams that Fiji have never beaten in a test match in its long and proud history...the springboks, the all blacks and Ireland.

Can’t wait to see what they’ll do with all their star players in one game at the World Cup.

Fantastic result for Fiji and deserved, at this moment myself and 14 mates from the pub could beat England, what a shambles,

The progress of the Fiji and all island state teams is solely attributed to the assistance of their two big brothers Australia and New Zealand.both rugby playing nations assist island nations with resources such as finance and logistics,technical expertise and the physical presence of advance coaches and ground crews taking the to the next level.thank you rugby Australia and New Zealand.

They often have to pay their own airfares and they don’t get paid much for their day jobs. Considering all that, it should make the world much more respectful of the kind of performance they have given. The people they are playing against are paid to train, paid to play (very well paid I might add) can focus on rugby completely without any financial worries and Fiji still beat them. No wonder countries like NZ do their best to snap the Fijian talent up for themselves so they end up playing on their side before they get a chance play against them.
