Fiji outplayed favourites France with a thrilling display of attacking verve to get their World Cup campaign off to a winning start in Wollongong.

How good are France.........................

Absolute rubbish.

Well played Fiji.

Rubbish from france. Fiji number 5 looks a good prospect.

So now France join tonga in watchin the rest of the tournament from the comfort of their hotel. Shows how much the catalans rely on their aussie imports in key positions!

This result cost me a schooner, I gave away 20-start as well.

Very poor France, very poor!!!

But on saying that, "onya Fiji" that was a very good effort.

I was impressed by Fiji they showed a lot more control than either Tonga/Samoa and kept to the game plan. That was the best performance of the comp so far. France looked really poor, that was the same type of performance they put up against England earlier in the year. There is still a lot of work to do with the game in France. The success that the Catalans have had as only masked the amount of work still to be done to bring the overall game in France upto international level.
