The sad thing is that if Fiji had Dan Saifiti, Korbin and Tariq Sims, Kane Evans and Regan Campbell-Gillard available, this could be the game of the WC.
Fiji will give it their best shot, but it shouldn't even be close in the end.

Hope I'm wrong but you sense Fiji has played its final.

Semi finals time is when the Aussies usually get ruthless.

You forgot Jason Bukuya is also missing.
If Ashton Sims and Kevin Naiqama can replicate their form against New Zealand, and if Jarryd Hayne at last plays to his capacity, it might be closer than all of you think. |

I agree. However on the other side of the coin it means Australia will arrive in the final completely underdone and unprepared for an English/Tongan (delete as applicable) assault  |

Think Tonga may have been complacent versus Lebanon, England didn't exactly look brilliant against them either and had the benefit of a lot of refs calls.
I think it'll be close. Tonga will be up for it playing in NZ for a place in the final. They have the pack and the backs, it's just the spine I'm less sure about. |

I am expecting this to be a lot closer than most seem to think it will. Fiji will be up for it from the start and should go on the offensive but the Aussie's quality will shine through in the end.
For those that don't know, the game is live on Premier Sports and online via bookies. rlSee this preview for detailsrl

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

This will be an easy game for the Aussies their controlled style will overwhelm Fiji - Aussies by 30 at least

Sorry, but there are no excuses for this crowd! It's a world cup semi final, in BRISBANE... How is this not sold out? This world cup has been the best one ever on the pitch, but it's been let down a little by what I assume must be a lack of marketing off the field. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more left in Wembley watching this game in 2013 than there are at the moment today.
That's my one negative statement done and out of the way, now come on Fiji!
