It seems the Fiji Water Flying Fijians will receive a timely boost with their nearest and dearest to cheer them on this weekend.

Waisale Natuna Vuidravuwalu, who is the father of Flying Fijians skipper Waisea Nayacalevu was just pictured leaving Fiji for Bordeaux, France.

The photos were posted up by Avenisi Vasuinubu, who is the younger brother of Nayacalevu.

Just earlier today a video had been posted on the FM96 Facebook page of Jiuta Wainiqolo’s mum surprising him at their base camp.

Having their family close will definitely give the Flying Fijians that extra boost as they prepare for their game this weekend.

The Flying Fijians play Georgia at 3.45am this Sunday.

Meanwhile, Japan will meet Samoa at 7am tomorrow, New Zealand will take on Italy at 7am Saturday, Argentina will play Chile at 1am Sunday, and Scotland will face Romania at 7am Sunday.

Uruguay beat Namibia 36-26 earlier this morning.
