'The Flash' Dakuwaqa joins Flying Fijians camp ahead of Ireland clash

'The Flash' Dakuwaqa joins Flying Fijians camp ahead of Ireland clash

Explosive Stade Francaise winger Peniasi Dakuwaqa has been called into the Fiji Water Flying Fijians camp to replace suspended outside back Semi Radradra for the remainder of the Autumn Nations Series campaign.

Radradra copped a 3-match suspension following his red card against Wales in Cardiff two weeks ago.

Dakuwaqa made his international debut for the Flying Fijians in June this year against Georgia where he started on the wing and helped them secure a 21-12 win in that match.

Dubbed “The Flash”, the 27-year-old has been in impressive form in the French Top 14 competition this season.

His inclusion will add depth to the Flying Fijians’ outside back as they prepare to take on world number two Ireland in their last test match this weekend.

The Flying Fijians will take on Ireland at 3.10am Sunday.
