    It's just poor, soft defence. But let's take nothing away from Sadrugu, it's pure power.

    First of many? Taniela Sadrugu just crashes down the middle through some non-existent marking.

    I thought for all money it was going to be a try there. It opened right up for Korbin Sims.

    Fiji 0-0 Scotland

    Davey Dixon is called into action in his own in goal area. Drop out incoming for Scotland who are under some early pressure.

    Korbin Sims then crashes over the line but is deemed to have been held up. Scotland well under the pump.

    We were here when Fiji destroyed the Italians and it was the left edge which they absolutely tore apart. Expect Ben Hellewell and Lachlan Walmsley to see a lot of traffic.

    Here come the teams. It's national anthem time up at Kingston Park.

    A win for Fiji here should seal the deal and see them face Group C winners New Zealand in the last eight.

    Fiji v Scotland (17:00 BST)

    Scotland head coach Nathan Graham, speaking to BBC Two: "It's been a different week for us, we've had a few injuries and we lost Bailey Hayward with a broken hand. Ryan Brierley damaged his knee in the captain's run and that was a late call. Liam Hood has a hamstring problem. But it gives other people a chance in the squad.

    "I want to see an 80-minute performance and complete our sets which is what we haven't done in the last two games."

    Fiji v Scotland (17:00 BST)

    Fiji make changes to their side, with Henry Raiwalui, Joseph Ratuvakacereivalu and Tevita Toloi replacing Tui Kamikamica, Sitiveni Moceidreke and Ben Nakubuwai.

    Scotland boss Nathan Graham has made a few late tweaks. Bailey Hayward was always making way for Guy Graham but Euan Aitken, Liam Hood and Ryan Brierley also miss out - all because of injuries.

    Salford full-back Ryan Brierley was meant to return from injury for Scotland's final World Cup group game against Fiji, however he misses out.

    An elbow injury meant Brierley missed the 84-0 loss to Australia in Coventry but a knee problem keeps him out today.

    Centre Bayley Liu and prop Sam Luckley, who both missed the Kangaroos game on 21 October because of illness, are also back in Nathan Graham's squad for Saturday's match in Newcastle.

    Scotland are all-but eliminated after losing both group matches so far to Italy and Australia by heavy margins.

    The Bravehearts would need to beat Fiji, semi-finalists in each of the past three World Cups, by at least 66 points to stand any chance of going through.

    Anyone reckon we'll see that number of tries in this contest? Fiji managed 10 against Italy, while Scotland shipped 15 against Australia.

    Hit the thumbs up if you think we're in with a chance.

    If you've been following England's huge 94-4 win over Greece on BBC One, it's time for more tries with a slightly different cast over on BBC Two.

    Our second game of the day takes up the M1/A1 from Sheffield to Newcastle for the penultimate Group B fixture between Fiji and Scotland.

    Just the 18 tries to beat, lads.
