Could the Flying Fijians secure a place in the quarter-finals and advance to the semi-finals in the 2027 Rugby World Cup? The tournament is set to increase in size from 20 to 24 teams, raising the stakes for all participating nations. This change may lead to players pushing for higher salary caps. It is anticipated that many fans will make the trip to Australia not only to watch the matches but also to enjoy shopping and reconnect with family and friends.
There is hope that Ben Ryan will return as a technical adviser, as his experience in motivating players during challenging times could be invaluable. His previous success with France, where he played a key role in their first Rugby Olympic gold medal, highlights his effective behind-the-scenes influence. France delivered a significant challenge in the grand final against Fiji.
