Fiji Airways Flying Fijians coach John McKee has stressed if they have to play the off‑load game, they firstly need to win the collision game.
This is after Fiji’s poor performance against Samoa last Saturday.
McKee says they didn't build enough phases and probably tried to offload too many times but this did not connect properly with some players.
He says there were some areas the players could have worked hard on and this is where they will start when they'll return after naming his 31 member squad to the Rugby World Cup this Friday.
