Fiji’s rising rugby star, Setareki Turagacoke, is fully aware that the upcoming match against Ireland will be far from easy. The 18-year-old lock, set to wear the white jersey for the second time, emphasizes the necessity for Fiji’s forwards to prepare themselves for a daunting challenge.
Turagacoke noted, “They are going to come hard at us, as they are one of the best teams.” He recognizes the importance of making a significant impact during scrums and lineouts, urging his teammates to adhere strictly to their game plan as forwards.
Similarly, half-back Frank Lomani echoed Turagacoke’s thoughts, stressing that a unified team effort will be crucial. “Attack wise and defensively as a team if we work together, we can do it,” Lomani stated. He pointed out that there are specific areas for improvement, but with the right mindset and by maintaining the performance level from their last two games, the team can achieve success.
As the Flying Fijians gear up for this intense encounter, their determination and focus on teamwork could foster a stronger performance against one of the toughest opponents in the tournament. Their commitment to improvement and strategy can inspire not just their team, but also their supporters, as they look to make a mark in the competition.
