FMF Flying Fijian 15's rugby coach, Ilivasi Tabua has joined the growing chorus of voices crying out for a better deal from the International Rugby Board for Second and Third Tier rugby nations.
Speaking after the 37 points to 20 lose to the Springboks this morning, Tabua pleaded for more opportunities for teams like Fiji to play against Tier One teams on the international stages.
Tabua felt that the bounce of the ball in the last 15 minutes of play did not favour the Fiji team as both teams were tied 20 points all at that stage of the game.
Meanwhile, South African coach Jake White who said earlier on the week that his side did not respect Fiji paid a lot of respect to the Flying Fijian after the match saying that he was surprised with 14 players on the field they were still able to score two tries.
In the first semi-final on Sunday morning at 7am England the defending champion will take on host France while on Monday at 7am the second semi-final South Africa faces Argentina.
