Welcome to part two of today’s rugby marathon. Reigning champions South Africa take on Fiji in Wellington and I’ve got a feeling that this could be a close one.

SA 3-3 Fiji PENALTY Fiji! No problems for centre Seremaia Bai as his kick puts Fiji level.

Fiji applying the pressure. Ndungane has to bring down rampaging hooker Sunia Koto, that has to hurt. The ball goes right and JP Pietersen is penalised for offside and Fiji will go for goal.

Ndungane is on hand to clear that ball up and Pat Lambie clears to touch.

Fiji now have the ball on halfway, they try something different by chipping over the green defensive line.

South Africa camped on the Fiji line. Gurthro Steenkamp and Burger all charge but are stopped short. Good defence. Fourie du Preez knocks on and the pressure is relieved.

South Africa attack but it is not going anywhere. Play is brought back, however, as Fiji were offside. This time there are cheers as SA kick to touch near the corner.

SA have got the wind in their sails now. JP Pietersen is on the charge out wide and he crosses halfway. The ball comes the other way and Fiji knock the ball on as it is fed wide to Ndungane.

SA 3-0 Fiji PENALTY South Africa! There are whistles from the crowd as SA opt to go for goal from inside their own half. They won't mind, Frans Steyn steps up to leather it over.

Scrum to SA from that knock on and number eight Spies makes a typical bullocking run from the base. He really is a superb player. Sakiusa Matadigo is penalised for not rolling away aftger bringing him down, SA going for goal.

There are 14 phases from Fiji but South Africa's defence is robust and solid and eventually the ball is knocked on when it is flipped wide.

Fiji now getting deep into SA territory. Bakkies Botha makes a couple of big challenges. Fiji need to be patient.

Odwa Ndungane takes the ball into contact but the Fiji forwards are all over him on the floor and the winger is penalised for not releasing.

Springboks with the possession from that set piece but Fiji are keeping them around halfway. Good defence.

Fiji concede a free kick at that set piece and SA unsurprisingly go for the scrum again.

Not good discipline at that SA line-out. From the take, SA knock on and Fiji have the scrum.

Fiji giving it a blast, not unexpected really. Naipolioni Nalaga makes a break down the left. The ball comes across to the right but Fiji are penalised for not releasing the ball at the ruck. SA clear.

Well that's a surprise. Morne Steyn with a straightforward kick but he pulls it and the ball goes right. Fiji off the hook there.

First line-out for SA, and it goes to Pierre Spies. Good platform and they attack down the right after a break from Heinrich Brüssow from the back of a maul. Fiji are penalised at the ruck and SA will go for goal. Bakkies Botha already involved in a flare up.

Fiji collect the kick off and Schalk Burger is the first Springbok on the scene. Fiji try to run it from their own 22 but they are going nowehere and eventually kick away to halfway.

Here we go... all set for kick-off. And it is South Africa to get us started.

The anthems completed, the players take off their tracksuits ready for Fiji's war dance, the Cibi.
