Fiji Airways Flying Fijians Head Coach Vern Cotter has had to amend his training sessions to limit contact to small groups.

This comes after three of their players in camp in France have tested positive for COVID-19.

Rugby Pass has reported that the squad is set to undergo more testing in an attempt to get back to normal preparations with contact training.

Fiji Rugby Union Chief Executive Officer John O'Connor had said that the concerned players have been in isolation as per the French Government and tournament COVID-19 protocols.

O’Connor says none of the concerned players have shown any symptoms and all are well but remain in isolation as per COVID-19 protocols and they are eagerly awaiting the second round of testing as recommended by the testing agency and COVID-19 compliance requirement.

Fiji's first match in the Autumn Nations Cup is scheduled against France on Sunday 15th November.

Fiji will then meet Italy on 21st November before travelling to Murrayfield to play Scotland in the final round on the 28th of November.
