The side finished as the third best qualifier from their pool after thrashing England 38-5, losing to USA 19-20 and registering a 12-12 draw with hot favourites New Zealand.

Olympians Alowesi Nakoci, Sesenieli Donu and Reapi Ulunisau continue to lead by example for Fijiana as they finished Day 1 with impressive stats.
