England couldn't have asked for a much better night in terms of a scoreline, and several players have put their hands up for selection in their World Cup opener.

Next up, it's the real thing - Samoa in Newcastle next Saturday in the opening game of the Rugby League World Cup.

Every match from the men's, women's and wheelchair tournaments will be live on the BBC. We can't wait and we hope you can't too!

Job done.

"Can I have the ball?" the TV cameras pick up a young supporter pleading.

What it's all about, I think he gets his souvenir too.

What. A. Statement.

The hooter sounds. Fiji still have the ball.

Not this time as a leaping Dom Young knocks on as he tries to go for the line.

England are under the posts...

Two minutes remain. England keep their concentration and intercept to break up a Fiji attack yet again.

Dom Young has been awarded the player of the match.

Very few will disagree with that decision.

Another scrum on the halfway line. Will Fiji finally make something happen?

Nine minutes to go. Will England break fifty?

The intensity has gone. It's all a bit flat to be honest.

It's a different England team now after another round of replacements.

Fiji win a scrum on the halfway line.

It's been a good 10 minutes since England's last try. Shaun Wane's side are happy to control the game and work through their plans.

Fiji have a fresh set in a strong position. But immediately they start with a sloppy knock-on. There's no confidence in the visiting camp.

The Tryline: Think we all expected far more from an opponent like Fiji, but sure they will be better next week with more NRL reinforcements to come in.

The opposition won't be much easier, though. Just the small matter of Australia first up for Fiji next Saturday...

A slick England move ends with them just short and Fiji stand firm to deny the hosts.

Much stronger defence than what we've been seeing. Can they build on this and get on to the scoreboard?

Liam Marshall has impressed since coming into the fold - the Wigan man isn't in England's World Cup squad, but was called up for this game to give coach Shaun Wane some more selection options as several players are being rested.

He calmly collects a Fiji grubber and drives out with some blistering acceleration. Twenty minutes to go.

You can only beat the oppo in front of you, but I wonder if England will be frustrated with the lack of challenge so far tonight?

Or am I just being overly harsh, or wrong even? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts. Hit me up on #bbcrl.
