There are reports out of France that another two members of the Flying Fijians squad preparing to face France in the first Autumn Nations Cup have tested positive for COVID-19.

AFP is reporting the two players are self-isolating with further coronavirus tests due to be taken.

These latest cases follows the three positive tests of the squad at the beginning this month.

We are currently trying to speak to Fiji Rugby Union CEO John O’Connor.

Fiji's first match in the Autumn Nations Cup is against France at 3.15am Monday.

Fiji will then meet Italy on next Saturday before travelling to Murrayfield to play Scotland in the final round on the 28th of this month.
