Our goal is to win the Rugby World Cup.

This was the statement made by Fiji Water Flying Fijians blockbusting centre Semi Radradra after their historic 22-15 win against Australia in their second RWC game.

He says nothing is impossible as this is their target.

Radradra says it is big for them as a team to win this kind of game and they are focused on another big one next week.

He also spoke on the importance of head coach Simon Raiwalui taking the players to his home village in Taveuni saying it is very important to them.

He says a few of them play in Europe so when they return home they stay in the city while Raiwalui took the team to the village, to connect to the people.

The Flying Fijian says during tough times, they have to look back at these moments.

Fiji will play Georgia at 3.45am on October 1st.

Meanwhile, Italy will play Uruguay at 3.45am this Thursday.
