The Vodafone Flying Fijians will have to play their best game if they are to match the Englishmen in the first match of the Rugby World Cup next week.

Coach John McKee says this has been a long wait for many players and it’s time for them now to step up and prove that they are the best Fiji can offer.

“To be in the opening game, we have got to put our best step forward. You’re on the World stage and the biggest event on the rugby calendar. The players have been waiting for this event for a long time.”

The Flying Fijians play England in the first match of the World Cup on the 19th of September at 7am.

You can watch all the matches from the tournament live on FBC TV.
