[L-R] Flying Fijians captain Dominiko Waqaniburotu and Maori All Blacks Captain Ash Dixon

Flying Fijians captain Dominiko Waqaniburotu says the team is aiming for an historic win today while Maori All Blacks Captain Ash Dixon says they will perform to their outmost best.

Waqaniburotu says with the few days of preparation he is sure they will pull off a historical victory against an opponent they have only come close to beat in recent years.

Maori All Blacks Captain Ash Dixon says that it does not really make a difference that they have players from the Super Rugby competition.

Dixon says one of factor they are trying to cope with is the weather which most of the boys are not very familiar with.

The Fiji Airways Flying Fijians will take on the  Maori All Blacks at 3 o’clock this afternoon at the ANZ Stadium and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station Viti FM.
