The FMF Flying Fijians Seremaia Bai and Seru Rabeni have thrilled fans since making their Test debut against Japan in 2000, but are just as important to their team-mates off the field too.
The veteran centre pairing are Fiji's entertainment team when they are on tour of different countries during the World Cup.
The long, repetitive days of hotels, travel and training mean that sometimes the squad needs to take their minds off rugby.
Bai in a interview with IRB, said they have to entertain the whole team in any way to help the boys who are homesick. He said the role includes everything from choosing the music played on the team bus or the movies played on the long trips, to fancy dress days and quiz nights.
Bai said they have entertainment programmes everyday to make all the players happy.
The FMF Flying Fijians plays Wales in their final pool match on Sunday at 3am with the winner advancing into the quarterfinals.
