I have no interest in the sport but may give it a go. I briefly got into watching darts, so I guess anything can happen.
Crap handling early on, hope the game doesn't continue like this.
For a non-rugby watcher, rugby league is probably easier to get into and will be more entertaining to you than rugby union.
England definitely look the stronger here. Expect a comfortable victory.
I can't believe that TF1 chose a commentator that knows nothing about Rugby.
They're making too much of this tackle, might be influenced by the crowd. Hope it's not a yellow card.
Jonathan Joseph likely to get a try (hopefully first try)?
Got some £ on it...

If only football had the same level of officiating.
Penalty try. Looks like Fiji are gonna get destroyed.
Scrum half gone on a yellow. First of my predictions comes true 
what does that mean? In terms of betting are they attributed to a player?
never mind just found this
If the first try is a penalty try then the scorer of the second try will be deemed the winner for settlement purposes.
Seems to have been this time, all those loads of players were offside. The scrum half bore the brunt of it this time. They can be awarded without yellow cards though.
Ah, the try. I thought you meant the blame on the defending side.
So England are allowed to knock the ball on? Cheaters.
A shock result was always too much to hope for here but even still, it would be nice if Fiji could shake England at least a bit.
feckin hell the game seems so much more complex than football!
You'll be lucky
They'll get a try or two yet, England will rack up a score but they'll need it.
England are kicking it away way too much for a team that is one man up.
Nah man, way too many pauses, rugby matches have no flow whatsoever.
Jesus Fiji are shit
What the feck were Fiji doing? Suicide, you never go long so close to your own try line.
Yeah, they seem to be really overawed by the big stage right, England aren't at their best but it's still a stroll for them.
This is what I expect Ireland's match to go like tomorrow too, to be fair. There'll be a lot of mismatches.
Yeah, they've been disappointing. Occasion has probably gotten to them.
Wow!
Aw come on, give it anyway
Super stuff. Great try and what the game needs.
no try woohooo
They're reviewing it? I thought it was already awarded, can they overturn it like that? Interesting.
Spoilsport.
This is such a tough group actually. Winning it sets you up on a nice route to the final though.
No arguing with that one.
That's a rugby league try right there.
JUST GIVE IT
Another great try!
Group of death alright.
You cant change your mind because of a stadium replay, this refs a knob lol
Any excuse to penalise Fiji
