The Fiji Water Flying Fijians are working towards a territorial game plan against a fast and constructive Japan side tomorrow when the two teams play in the Asahi Super Dry Pacific Nations Cup final.

Coach Mick Byrne highlighted the various strategies they will be working towards especially when they will be playing in hot and humid conditions.

He says they are working in terms of securing that winger's position after a dismal performance from Epeli Momo last week, and he is confident Momo will work to improve to prove himself.

Byrne highlighted the preparation for the final game has been going great and the weather has been favorable to them and he hopes the team will use it to their advantage.

Byrne stresses the spirits are high at the moment going into the final and the intensity during training has been the same but they have shortened their training sessions a bit.

The Flying Fijians will play Japan at 10.05pm tomorrow in Osaka, Japan.
