The Flying Fijians have dropped to tenth position in the World Rugby rankings following their defeat in the first round of the Northern Tour. Fiji suffered a significant loss to Scotland, with a final score of 57-17, resulting in their fall from ninth place. Australia, which was previously in tenth, has now moved ahead of Fiji.
Next week, Fiji will take on Wales, who is currently ranked eleventh. This upcoming match presents a crucial challenge, as another loss could see Fiji slipping out of the top 10 rankings altogether.
Despite the current setback, this moment could serve as a pivotal learning experience for the Flying Fijians. With a chance to regroup and strategize ahead of their match against Wales, the team has an opportunity to reclaim their standing and demonstrate their resilience in the international rugby arena. A strong showing could not only restore confidence but also solidify their position in the rankings, reinforcing the strength and skill that the Flying Fijians are known for.
