Apisalome Vota and Kalaveti Ravouvou

Expect a Fijian Drua combination in the midfield when the Vodafone Flying Fijians take on Tonga in the Pacific Nations Cup this Saturday.

With Olympic gold medalist Vilimoni Botitu yet to join the Vodafone Flying Fijians camp, Coach Vern Cotter has indicated that the Apisalome Vota and Kalaveti Ravouvou will be the likely combination in midfield.

Botitu scored a try in the French Top 14 final over the weekend and he is expected to join the team on Thursday.

Other experienced players that have joined the Flying Fijians camp and were out training with the team today include, Seta Tamanivalu, Ben Volavola, Manasa Mataele, Josua Tuisova and Api Ratuniyarawa.

Fiji will meet Tonga in their first PNC match at 3.30pm Saturday at the ANZ Stadium.
