11 changes won’t do us any good
Who would better know how to defeat Wales than the man himself Ilivasi Tabua who prepared one of the best ever Flying Fijians team in the 2007 rugby World Cup.

As the Fiji rugby fans desperately wait for some thrilling rugby from our Flying Fijians, questions remain again on the selection of players in the starting lineup.

Tabua said bringing 11 changes to the main line will not do any good if we are to give the Welsh a good run for their money.


Tabua who is also a former Wallaby says Wales will come out firing after rattling tough Samoan’s and Fiji’s defense needs to be on per if we are to contain the pressure.


The Fiji team to play Wales in the forwards Waisea Naulago, Sunia Koto, Setefano Somoca, Leone Nakarawa, Wame Lewaravu, Rupeni Nasiga, Sakiusa Masi and Netani Talei as captain.

Back line will be Vitori Buatava, Nicky Little, Michael Tagicakibau, Gaby Lovobalavu, Ravai Fatiaki, Albert Vulivuli and Iliesa Keresoni 

Reserves are Viliame Veikoso, Campese Ma'afu, Mala Ravulo, Akapusi Qera, Nemia Kenatale, Seremaia Bai and Vereniki Goneva.

The Wales and Fiji match kicks off at 5pm tomorrow in Hamilton and a commentary of the match can be heard on our sister station, Viti-FM with the voice of rugby, Malakai Veisamasama and expert comments from Ilivasi Tabua.
