Fiji Airways Flying Fijians Coach Vern Cotter says they want to win one of the test matches against the All Blacks.

Cotter says this is their objective and whatever the results may be, they will be stronger and better prepared for what comes next.

He says they are playing the best team in the world and this will bring the best out of them as they want to be a better team in the 2023 Rugby World Cup.

The All Blacks have played Fiji nine times before, but not since 2011 in what was the final test match in Carisbrook, Dunedin.

The All Blacks thrashed Fiji 60-14 in this match.

They will take on the All Blacks at 7.05pm next Saturday and the 17th of July.
