Flying Fijians leaving no stone unturned for clash against Tonga

Flying Fijians leaving no stone unturned for clash against Tonga

The FIJI Water Flying Fijians will begin their defence of the Pacific Nations Cup title this Saturday against Tonga, and the Tevita Ikanivere captain's side is leaving no stone unturned in their preparation and is fully aware of the high expectations from the home crowd that anticipates nothing less than victory.

Ikanivere says the team is determined and has been training very hard.

He says they have had some great sessions and are working on their systems both in attack, defence and set piece, and the results will take care of themselves.

Meanwhile, Tonga are coming in hot after a 30–16 win over Samoa in their PNC opener and will be hoping to topple the Fijians on home soil.

The Flying Fijians will take on Tonga at 3pm Saturday at the HFC Bank Stadium, Suva.
