[QUOTE="OllyM97, post: 1152951, member: 85525"] Weirdly, I would feel more confident in Fiji if they had to win by 40 points. In that scenario, there’s no confusion, they would have to run the ball and play to their traditional strengths. This is nothing against Portugal, who have been a breath of fresh air at this World Cup, but I hope Fiji blitz it in the first 20 minutes and not allow any anxiety to fester. Come out fast, get 2 or 3 tries up, and then just manage the game. With the talent in the team, they should be able to do that - but I have my doubts. A bad start and pressure do strange things.
