Flying Fijians star half-back Frank Lomani says they have been given the opportunity to be part of the Autumn Nations Cup, so they have to make sure they do everything right and show that Fiji deserves to be in the tier one category.

Lomani says it was a dream of so many former Flying Fijians reps to play in this tournament.

He adds he is excited and ready to be coached by Vern Cotter.

Lomani says he has heard a bit about Cotter and that he is a good coach, straight forward with the players so he is looking forward to working with him and hopes they can perform well during the tournament.

Fiji's first match in the Autumn Nations Cup is against France on 15th November, then they will face Italy on the 21st of November, and will play Scotland on the 28th of November.
