North is the stronger player, even when both on form but definitely whilst Cuthbert isn’t firing right, it only took a couple of minutes to see some North magic, and regardless of who you support we can generally agree he is a world class winger, just seems he has to labour for involvement and come into the centre more, whereas Cuthbert get’s his opportunities gift wrapped.

I can’t help wonder if it is a case of, keep North safe and less involved so he wont be hurt and see if they can’t shake Cuthbert’s bogeyman.

As for Morgan’s issue he would do well on the Wing when Liam is back at FB, more opportunity for his runs with less danger if he messes up.

Points should be less for the props. The scrum was dreadful

Minus points should be awarded to the ref for a complete lack of consistency.

Pleased Biggar wasn’t injured as want to see him playing (even if it does make Wales much more likely to beat Aus).His partnership with Davies has the potential to be the find of the tournament

Entertaining game though. If Volavola was a better kicker and if they’d had Matawalu and Nadolo, I think it would have been even closer

Their games against Wales and Aus have made England’s opening night efforts look somewhat better in hindsight.

Fortunately there were no such incidents last night, but some of his decisions were ‘interesting’ and there were harsh penalties given to both sides.

I thought Gareth Davies had a bit of a mixed game. He kept the defence on its toes and generally looked pretty dangerous, but some of his decision making wasn’t good; notably after Morgan’s break, but also some of his kicks.

Faletau and Warburton were awesome and the former should definitely have been MOTM. Charteris also impressed when he came on and should surely start against Australia.

The front row is a worry, but hopefully Lee and James will both be fully fit. Lee to start and James to come on if Jenkins is having a wobble.

I’d have happily taken a 10 point win before kickoff, but after Baldwin’s try though we could have grabbed a bonus point, and maybe should have done so before half time with a bit more composure. The flagging in the second half was a bit worrying, particularly as the kicking was poor and played into Fiji’s hands when the running game was gaining a lot of meters. Hopefully these both just come down to tiredness.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m so glad Biggar only had cramp and nothing more sinister!

As for the ratings, I’d maybe drop 0.5 or 1 point off Morgan, for as entertaining as he was in attack, I thought he was pretty suspect in defence. This may have been due to the directive, which it seems was to go high to stop the offloads, which on the whole I thought was pretty ineffective. I thought we fell off more tackles in that game yesterday than we have in the whole tournament to date. Tiredness probably a factor too, but it did allow Fiji to get away numerous times and offload at will.

I’d probably give MM another go, but I’d put him on the wing, with LW at 15 and Cuthbert dropped – who was so poor again.

Special shout out to Hook – 3 times he touched the ball, 3 times he dropped it – classic Hooky.

Delighted with the win. Delighted to be right behind the posts to see our first two tries. Terrifying size up close those Fijian players. Worried about 60 mins in – both by the score and the clear look of knackeredness (it’s a word) on the faces and bodies of our players.

Well impressed with how many people with English accents are from Fiji and wear their Fiji shirts with pride. My block was packed with them. “Well done chaps”, as they were saying.

Sam goes under the radar again – the words say he was excellent, the score says he’s as good as Robshaw.

No injuries! Worried when Biggar was off but it was cramp – he was exhausted.

Danny Wilson is back in Wales now – need him to get involved in the Welsh setup for the scrum, his expertise has already helped the hapless Blues pack from last year become competitive, with the same players.

Gethin – what a conundrum. When fit he’s on fire around the park but two poor scrum outings in a row must be rectified, and quickly.

Must mention no BP – honestly cannot see that as a failure as it wasn’t there. Fiji well up for it, our boys knackered, the win in the bag. 3 from 3. A BP would have meant we could possibly (if Eng beat Aus) tolerate a losing BP against Aus. No BP means that (if Eng beat Aus) we have to beat Aus. So we need 8 more pts againts Aus’s score than we otherwise would have. If it comes down to that and we’re not good enough to do it, but the team we beat are good enough to beat Aus, then we don’t go through. On balance I can live with that across a series of games.

Matthew Morgan – some delightful stuff but tried to play everything and was close to losing the ball on our 5 yards at least twice. Needs some sense.

And hey, we had a game with James Hook and Rhys Priestland on the pitch and it wasn’t a loss. Small increments.
