Fiji’s frightening winger puts ITV commentator firmly in his place after outrageous remark

It's a brave man that takes on Nemani Nadolo.

ITV commentator, Nick Mullins, rcame under serious fire on Friday night when he made a controversial emark whilst commentating on England's opener with Fiji. He said, live on television: "They'll be back in Fiji around one television hoping the generator doesn't fail them." It sparked a lot of insulted complaints and just general raised eye brows. Thankfully, Nadolo has come to the rescue. The powerful Fijian back is a forceful presence on the field and he's obviously not too shy off it either as he voiced the disappointment of his country at Mullins. Nadola tweeted the commentator to say: "There's more than one TV in Fiji, mate, and power is running just fine. Disappointing mate. #MuppetCall" UPDATE: ITV have defended Mullins with an understandable explanation that shows that his quotes were taken out of context.
