Fiji Water Flying Fijians coach Mick Byrne says there are no injury concerns in the team with Caleb Muntz recovering well and back in training for the All Blacks game this weekend.

Byrne says the boys were a bit rusty against Georgia but they have had some good runs last week.

He says they are settling in well at their new base camp in San Diego.

When questioned about the All Blacks, Byrne says they have a new coaching group just like them, but they have just had two tough games against England and are starting to work well as a unit


All Blacks Attack coach, Leon McDonald says while they have not named their team to play Fiji, there is going to be a couple of new faces in there.

McDonald says the expectation for them is to keep continuing to get better from their previous performances.

The Flying Fijians play the All Blacks at 2.30pm Saturday in San Diego.
