We want to play like Fijians - Raiwalui

We are working on our carries, cleans, the physical aspects and our rugby because we want to play like Fijians.

Fiji Water Flying Fijians head coach Simon Raiwalui highlighted this at the team naming last night adding they have had a real focus on getting their fitness up to where they can play 80 minutes of rugby at a high level.

Raiwalui says another area he has been working really hard on is the discipline of the team.

When questioned on the effectiveness of the Drua inclusion, Raiwalui says everyone can see the great benefit with them being in their second year as well as their continuity.

The Flying Fijians will play England at 2.15am Sunday in their last warm up game before the Rugby World Cup in France.

Fiji plays Wales in their first first RWC game at 7am September 11th.
