Fiji Airways Flying Fijians Coach Vern Cotter says fans will see some real grit and determination against the All Blacks tonight because the players are aware of what is happening in the country at the moment.

Cotter says the players are aware that the world is not the same as a few years ago and it is about adapting which is what they do really well.

He says now it is all about rolling up their sleeves and putting on a good performance.

Captain Levani Botia says the match against the All Blacks tonight is a big opportunity for the younger members of the team.

The two sides last met in 2011 where the All Blacks beat Fiji 60-14.

Fiji will take on the All Blacks at 7.05 tonight.
