Will Australia continue on their merry way through this tournament to set up a trans-Tasman blockbuster? Or will Fiji spring the mother of all ambushes today and crack the final in their first ever World Cup? The Fiji Bulikula have had a wonderful tournament so far. They almost pulled a major upset against New Zealand in round one, going down 18-12 after leading at half-time. They went one better in round two, pummelling Papua New Guinea by 40-4 in Port Moresby. Last week, they flayed the French 54-6 on the Gold Coast, a 10-try romp that put the World Cup frontrunners on notice. Australia’s Jillaroos have been awesome in every game, scoring 242 points and only conceding six. They started their World Cup
