Flying Fijians captain Waisea Nayacalevu is confident that the team's fitness and flair will play a crucial role in their upcoming match against Ireland, building on the success they had in their win over Spain last week.

Nayacalevu says the team’s focus on fitness and resilience was a key factor in their 33-19 victory over Spain, especially after a challenging first half.

He says the players showed great character in rallying during the second half to secure the win.

Nayacalevu adds as the team prepares for their final match of the Autumn Nations Series the players have regrouped and are determined to finish the campaign on a high note. The Fiji Water Flying Fijians will face Ireland at 3:10am this Sunday.
