FIJI*Players currently on the pitch are shown in bold
Here's what ESPN's man on the ground Sam Bruce (@SamBruce86) had to say:
"The Wallabies have come through their opening match at the Rugby World Cup, but only after a determined Fiji dominated the final 20 minutes at Millennium Stadium. The Aussies, too, failed to match England's effort in picking up a bonus point against the Pacific Islanders - a fact that may prove decisive given the strength of Pool A. The Aussies looked to be coasting at half-time after first-half rolling maul tries from David Pocock, which Sekope Kepu added to soon after the break. But Ben Volavola's solo try gave the Fijians some outside hope and while they never really looked like winning the encounter, the underdogs certainly finished the stronger. Wallabies coach Michael Cheika will likely lament his side's poor handling, but in the rolling maul, he has a powerful weapon at the ready."
