As the Fiji Airways Flying Fijians prepare to play in historic back to back test matches against the All Blacks, captain Levani Botia says the players are eager to lift their game before they play the All Blacks.
Speaking from New Zealand, Botia says these players have only watched the All Blacks play and never had the chance to play against the All Blacks.
He further says it is an honour to captain the team.
Botia also says they miss Fiji.
The All Blacks have played Fiji nine times before, but not since 2011 in what was the final Test match at Carisbrook in Dunedin.
The first match against Fiji was in Suva in 1974, with the All Blacks pipping the home side that day 14-13.
The Flying Fijians will take on the All Blacks at 7.05pm on the 10th and 17th of July.
