I’m looking forward to learning from the best in the world and picking the brains of the senior players.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua prop Emosi Tuqiri highlighted this after he was called up to replace Jone Koroiduadua in the Fiji Water Flying Fijians Rugby World Cup squad saying if any opportunity or chance is given he will take it with both hands.

Tuqiri says after not being picked in the initial RWC squad, he reset his goals for the upcoming year, returned to Brisbane and continued with his training.

The prop says he still has a lot to improve and work on.

Fiji play Georgia at 3.45am this Sunday.
