Prime Minister and former Flying Fijian Sitiveni Rabuka has sent his words of encouragement through the social media platform X formerly known as Twitter, to the Fiji Water Flying Fijians in France.

Rabuka is reminding the team of the importance of playing with the spirit of victory and scoring maximum points.

The Prime Minister also mentioned that he will not be able to watch the game against Georgia as he will be returning home on a flight from the US-Pacific Islands Forum Leaders meeting.

Flying Fijians coach Simon Raiwalui says he will let the team know adding he is pretty sure Fiji Airways could give the Prime Minister free onboard internet to stream the match.

Fiji plays Georgia at 3.45am tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Argentina will play Chile at 1am tomorrow, Scotland will face Romania at 7am, Australia will meet Portugal at 3.45am Monday while South Africa will take on Tonga at 7am.

Earlier this morning the All Blacks decimated Italy 96-17.
