Everyone is excited about the potential for the island nations but I think longer term beneficiaries will also include the home nations (England included) who have a massive population worldwide with one grandparent born there.

Naiyaravoro might get a look in along with Nathan Hughes for Fiji

Surely Vunivalu will be there

Can't agree here - he just tried to stop the pass exactly the same as Beale without also making a tackle. luckily for him it went pretty much straight down

I'm not sure 9:30 or 11:30 pm is exactly 'primetime'

I think we are wasting Sunday afternoons only half of the available Sundays have a match scheduled

They are putting together a stronger team than I expected - well done to them.

Paisami gave away 2 penalties when we were about to score, combined with the Hooper no try left 15-21 points out there with poor discipline

Every time the whistle goes it seems a doctor is required
