The Vodafone Flying Fijians will be looking to redeem themselves against a formidable Samoan side this weekend after their loss to Australia A last week.

Fiji’s coach Vern Cotter has admitted that inconsistency had cost them the game last week.

Flyhalf Teti Tela had missed a few crucial kicks while Ben Volavola did not capitalize on some opportunities in their second half.

Fiji is in 3rd place in their Pacific Nations Cup table followed by Tonga at 4th. Samoa is leading the points with Australia A sitting at second place.

The final round of the PNC will be played at Churchill Park on Saturday, Australia A will take on Tonga at 12pm while Fiji will face Samoa at 3.30pm
