Former Fiji 15's rugby captain, Koli Rakoroi who led the 1987 team to reach the Rugby World Cup quarter finals in New Zealand, believes that the win against Wales on Sunday morning was one of the proudest moments in Fiji's rugby history.
Rakoroi said that the achievement that Mosese Rauluni and his team have achieved, will be remembered by most rugby fans for sometime, since Wales have always beaten Fiji in their past 8 encounter.
The Tailevu man added that to be in the play-off stage in the Rugby World Cup shows the amount of hard work and sacrifice the team goes through in their preparation.
Rakoroi also shares moments of the unforgettable memory of the 1987 quarter finals when full-back Severo Koroduadua dropped that ball when the try-line was wide-open and that try could have put them through to the semi-final.
The FMF Flying Fijians plays South Africa in the quarterfinal on Monday at 1am.
