There is no hard or easy game and Georgia is a very tough team.

Fiji Water Flying Fijians coach Simon Raiwalui highlighted this during the team naming saying that they take one match at a time, and they respect each team they play.

Raiwalui says the Georgian team will come out very physical, and they know because they have played them quite a few times.

He says the set-piece is one area they will be looking at and they know the challenges ahead of them.

When asked about the support that Fiji has been getting from the French fans, Raiwalui says they can definitely feel the support and hear it at the stadiums and are very appreciative of it.

Raiwalui says they also obviously have their fans that travel very well.


Raiwalui says they have prepared well this week and are ready for the challenges coming their way.

Fiji will play Georgia at 3.45am this Sunday.

Meanwhile, New Zealand will take on Italy at 7am tomorrow, Argentina will play Chile at 1am Sunday, and Scotland will face Romania at 7am Sunday.

Earlier this morning Japan beat Samoa 28-22.
