Big year for Fijian Drua players in Flying Fijians squad - Byrne

It has been a big year so far for the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua players that are in the Fiji Water Flying Fijians squad making their international debut this year and coach Mick Byrne believes they are developing well and adapting to playing on the big stage.

Byrne says most of these young Drua players did not think they would be putting on the Flying Fijians jersey this year and every time they have done that, they have stepped up, played well and done the nation proud.

He says these players have been preparing themselves well as he has seen them train over the past three years.

The Flying Fijians will be hunting for a win this weekend against Scotland so they can move up the World Rugby rankings.

The Flying Fijians will play Scotland at 5.30am this Sunday.

They will take on Wales at 1.40am on Monday 11th November at the Millennium Stadium before playing Spain at 2am on the 17th of November in their third test.

The Flying Fijians will then take on Ireland in their final test on the 24th of November at 3.10am.
