This weekend’s Pacific Nations Cup clash will see two Super Rugby five eight specialists go head to head as Tusi Pisi looks forward to meeting Ben Volavola.

Volavola who scored a brilliant try last weekend said he still has some tricks up his sleeves.

The 25-year-old has 10 caps for Fiji and played for the Waratahs from 2013 to 2015.

The Crusaders utility admits he will have to up his kicking game to match the skills of Tusi Pisi who has been very impressive with the Sunwolves this season.

Pisi is known for his accurate kicking and has played 25 caps for Samoa, played for the Crusaders, Toulon from 2007 to 2009 and also featured for the Hurricanes in 2012.

Meanwhile the other Samoan players who are playing in Super Rugby are Fa'atiga Lemalu of the Sunwolves and Motu Matu'u the hooker for the Hurricanes.

The Vodafone Flying Fijians will host Samoa at 3pm this Saturday at the ANZ Stadium and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station Viti FM.
