Proud of the boys to get the result but there’s still plenty to work on.

Fiji Water Flying Fijians coach Simon Raiwalui highlighted this during the press conference after their 17-12 win over Georgia this morning

Raiwalui says they did not get the momentum in the first half as they were getting beaten to the punch

MasterCard Man of the Match Levani Botia says they gave away many good opportunities but he is proud of the boys.

When asked on what he was thinking of when he offloaded to Vinaya Habosi, Botia just shrugs and says rugby is rugby.

Australia play Portugal at 3.45am tomorrow while South Africa face Tonga at 7am.

Fiji’s last pool game is against Portugal next Monday at 7am.

In earlier games, Argentina thrashed Chile 59-5 and Scotland obliterated Romania 84-0.
