Today is our day 🇫🇯 With that being said, discipline will be our downfall again if we don’t sort that ASAP. There were so many times I had to take some deep breaths but man, we seem to make the same inconsistencies game after game. Muntz is a generational player for Fiji, that man will take us places.
I love how they tried to run it back after turning it over, when time was up, up 5 points and have the ball near their own Try Line, Such a Fijian thing to do.
As a Welshman well done Fiji . Your backs are class . Ours are shite . They looked cluess, and insisted on passing the ball too deep, loved playing well behind the gain line, or taking the ball standing still and with an inability of running in straight lines . Compare the tens . Muntz v Anscombe. We are so shite at the moment it’s unreal, You can’t just spend a game defending and hoping you can win .
One of my favourite parts of the game was the commentators giving out about Fiji playing too many run out runners. They were doing that during a phase when Fiji forced two penalties out of Wales and went to the corner. Then Hugo Monye was saying Fiji need to go off the top and target Costelow. Instead they went for the penalty try (that was then overruled). Commentators weren't wrong, but it almost felt like Fiji were like "na bro, we got this"
Insult to injury for Wales, but anyways it's Fiji who maintained composure in spite of their indiscipline and really missed their Europe boys last weekend. Next up is for them not to choke against other 2nd tier teams like Spain coming up.
Not a surprising result when you consider the Welsh barely beat a second-rate Queensland Reds team by a single point. Glad to see the Fijians bring some consistency!
Thanks Mark. Welshman in Sydney so did not watch it live but from the extended 25 mins highlights I felt Fiji just deserved the win if only for Caleb Muntz 's performance. Wales too many errors as you said. They should have been better with more experienced players back but it just did not happen again. With Grady out Rio Dyer will probably return. Also Jac Morgan has to start next week. With Wallabies and Boks to come, looks like it could be 12 losses in a row and a whole calendar year without a win. Apparently that would be great the first time it has happened since 1937 when they played very few games. If it does happen WG may resign.
It's time for Gatland to go. If we can't beat Fiji we're not going to beat Australia let alone South Africa. His win percentage since he's been back is like 35%. We'll be down to a 12 game losing streak by the end of the year I recon. I don't know who they'd replace him with. At the moment it reminds me of when Kieran Cowley was in charge of Italy, they look like they're improving. They're just not winning
Muntz!!!! The kid got a working head screwd on his neck...he literally run the Welsh around the park all day...ok, Tuisova was sublime but let's be honest 1 vs 1 on the man..very little chance..as for Wales...Good luck they will need it
Good to see Fiji getting the win, but concerning how poor the Welsh have been all year, considering their 0 from 10 games this year if I'm not mistaken. Surely Gats is under pressure to keep his job if he doesn't turn things around.
Well played for Fiji but we're not being dramatic in Wales when we say we're a tier 2 nation - that's the truth - Fiji should've expected to win. I know it was the start of the dark ages when we lost to georgia a couple of years ago and unfortunately that was right
@@nepiahemopo1702How? Fijis poor discipline combined with Bias Refs & TMO’s had the odds stacked against Fiji.. I’m bloody glad Fiji walked away with the Win
Didnt see a problem with the tackle that got the red card, seems like rugby is having games ruined by over reffing. How Warren Gatland is still the coach of Wales is amazing
The whole Wales coaching team NEEDS replacing now, it’s gone on for four years this. Our rugby doesn’t work, our regional system is broken, the one good region we have is alienated, our best players aren’t picked bc they don’t play for the golden teams. Rob Howley is a joke of a coach, why the hell we need him I will never know.
Ridiculous from Gatland to complain about the reffing. It was some best reffing i've seen in a long while. This has become his crutch. Ben O'Keeffe on the other hand.
Tell you - it's like pulling teeth supporting Wales - We had some good moments of play and great to see some of the new players. But Wales were playing scrambling rugby. This was playing against a team which was one man down. The completely failure to take those points when we could showed utter stupidity. sam costello is not international standard. He reminds me of a nervous little schoolboy. He's no natural No 10 and his kicking is debatable. The pain continues!!!!!!!
Well done FIJI, Wales need to boot Costelow to the club regions !! He is not international level at all, 2 knock ons, 3 missed tackles missed penalties every game he is terrible! Jarrod Evans needs to be 10
Imagine paying all that money to watch a bunch of amatuers, embarrassing plus waste of money. Dont mind loosing, you letting the people down. Kick your backside and get going
@@maximus6249 Idk as an Irish fan I've always had a rivalry with the Welsh. I still remember in the 00s when ye would regularly paste us. Rivalries are what makes it fun for me, although i know this is an extra step lol.
@@scran7346 fair enough, im 18 so don’t remember them days, always had respect for the Irish and Scottish, only team I enjoy watching lose is England 😊

To hell with the Southern hemisphere bullcrap. Fiji isn't playing in the Rugby Championship. We don't sit @ the same table.
@@benmateinaqara883 relax. we’re not good enough to play on that level.

Fiji discipline has cost them so many times in the past
The Drua academy will drill that into the youngsters, and hopefully the new FRU board follows its model also
@@Samizouza yeah fair but what about our boys playing now? Byrne needs to pin point these little things out.
@Dummypass Byrne no doubt will deal with that but a sports psychologist of some sort would be huge benefit
@@Samizouza yes definitely I seen Fiji play live at Twickenham in 2012 the year then last time England beat NZ at home
I love how they tried to run it back after turning it over, when time was up, up 5 points and have the ball near their own Try Line, Such a Fijian thing to do.
Yes, but a very silly thing to do… imagine if they’d lost the ball.
@dewabule Then it would be game over or they go back to the initial knock on
@dewabule as a neutral... Pretty irresponsible with your team mates and staff... It's an historical win... Kick it out
Last play on your own half with 5 points different 😮Typical fijian style....risky indeed. 😊
Great win for fiji

our biggest test yet lol
Fingers crossed that doesn't happen
Delighted for Fiji but Wales are woeful
This was a hard watch, biggest issue for me is that our backs are absolutely tiny, always gonna be a mismatch against physical teams

I saw the match highlights earlier, who was the guy seen shouting at Gatland in the coach's box at full time? He wasn't happy.
Toso Viti 😉👌 .... From Australia

Thank you Mark. Poor Wales have a long way to go still
Wales were terrible they had opportunities and they dident take them too many turn overs
From ranked 1st to 11th in just 5 years is unreal.
Good to see Fiji getting the win, but concerning how poor the Welsh have been all year, considering their 0 from 10 games this year if I'm not mistaken. Surely Gats is under pressure to keep his job if he doesn't turn things around.
So, has every 6 nations team lost at home this week🤔

Probably because it would bankrupt WRU to get rid of him
No ABs or SA coach would get to that many losses without being replaced.

That was a biased decision by the TMO to cancel the Penalty Try for Fiji….ANOTHER SABOTAGING DECISION….the referee stick to his own decision…😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊
Not really a great result. Worst welsh team I've ever seen player wise and coached. Even the early 2000s welsh team beat this lot shambles.
Jesus it’s not even entertaining or interesting watching Wales lose anymore. Just a ‘he’s already dead’ situation
How do you think it feels as a fan?
@ I’m a wallabies fan so pain isn’t an unknown. Man I do wish you guys win though
@hughstark4882 including next week? ;) haha

Hopefully the 6N is a bit better

Was awful
