Flying Fijians captain comments after humiliating loss
Flying Fijians Captain, Deacon Manu said they can be their own worst enemies at times.

His comments come after the 53-nil hiding to a second string Irish A side.

Manu declined to shift blame for the defeat to anyone but the players as he outlined his bitter disappointment at a lackluster performance.

The 33 year old New Zealand born prop said it was a sad day, frustrating and it was really disappointing not to even get one score.

He added that it was really a hard pill to swallow as they had opportunities in the Irish 22 but got nothing.

Fiji will play Georgia at 12am Sunday in its last match of the Europe tour.

Meanwhile, the Fiji rugby union stands by Flying Fijians coach Inoke Male despite the team=s disastrous performance so far.

FRU Chairman, Colonel Mosese Tikoitoga earlier stated they are confident coach Inoke Male will stay because he has a three year contract and he stands by their performance.
