Flying Fijians to employ running rugby

Flying Fijians to employ running rugby
The Flying Fijians will stick to traditional running rugby when they take on the defending champions of the Pacific Nations Cup, Japan tonight.

Speaking from Japan, Coach, Inoke Male said that he is certain that former Wallabies coach, Eddie Jones who is now coaching Japan will come out with a smart strategy.

However, Male said that he is confident his new look backline will come out firing tonight where Watisoni Votu, Aisake Katonibau, Waisea Nayacalevu and Setareki Koroilagilagi will make their debut.


Meanwhile, Japan Coach, Eddie Jones said that their record against Fiji is not very good as in the last six years Japan has only won once. 

Jones said that the question is why they cannot beat Fiji.

Jones added that his players need to put pressure on Fiji when Japan has the ball in attack and put pressure on Fiji when they do not have the ball.

Fiji will play Japan at 10.10 tonight in the Pacific Nations Cup while Samoa takes on Tonga at 8:10pm.

Meanwhile, in the other international test match tonight, Australia will host Scotland at 9:30.
