Fiji School Boys under 18 rugby team ready for Australia

Fiji School Boys under 18 rugby team ready for Australia

The Fiji School Boys under 18 rugby team are ready for this week's game against the Australian School Boys although they have spent less than a month together.

Coach Peniona Ranitu says they have depth in the team with two of their players representing Fiji last year in the Fiji under-18 rugby team and a few more contracted with the High Performance Unit program.

With majority of the players selected from the winning under-18 Vodafone Deans Competition, Queen Victoria School, Ranitu is content that the boys will blend in well.

Ranitu says he is aware of the style of rugby the Australian players are known for.

He is urging the Western fans to come in numbers to support the team this Saturday.

The Fiji School Boys will take on the Australian School Boys at 6pm this Saturday at Lawaqa Park.
