Fiji Water Flying Fijians prop Jone Koroiduadua has been ruled out of the 2023 Rugby World Cup due to an injury.

Koroiduadua will be replaced by Swire Shipping Fijian Drua prop Emosi Tuqiri who will join the team later this week.

Koroiduadua made his debut for the Flying Fijians against France this year and since then has been playing an important part of the team in its preparation for the RWC in France.

The Flying Fijians will take on Georgia at 3.45am this Sunday in Bordeaux.
