Caleb Muntz, the talented fly-half for the Fiji Water Flying Fijians, expressed his elation following their historic 24-19 victory over Wales in Cardiff. Muntz’s performance earned him the title of Player of the Match, as he scored an impressive 19 points during the game.
“This win means a lot to me,” Muntz shared in his post-match interview.

The team had set a clear goal for their visit to Principality Stadium. “We had never won here before; we’ve had wins at other places but not in Cardiff. Following our close loss to Wales in the Rugby World Cup, this victory truly means a great deal to all of us,” Muntz added.
Muntz’s remarkable stats included 11 completed tackles, 13 passes, 4 penalties, 1 try, and 1 conversion, concluding with a total of 19 points. He also recorded 83 run meters, made 2 clean breaks, beat 5 defenders, executed 9 kicks from hand, and achieved a 92% tackle success rate.
This victory not only showcases the resilience and talent of Muntz and his team but also marks a turning point for the Flying Fijians as they prepare for future challenges. Their ability to bounce back from previous performances is a testament to their determination and skill, offering fans hope for continued success in the upcoming matches.
