McKee says that there were some excellent scramble defence close to Fiji’s try line along with very good tackling techniques.
The national side are the defending champion of the Pacific Nations Cup.
McKee will assemble his squad again tomorrow before announcing his travelling squad on Saturday to fly out to Nuku’alofa.
Fiji will face Tonga in their first Pacific Nations Cup match next Saturday before travelling to Apia to face Samoa on July 15th.
The Pacific Nations Cup will start this Saturday with Tonga hosting Samoa at 2pm.
