“It has been a relaxed start. We are together for a long time so we have moved into it greatly. We haven’t sort of hit the big stick yet on Day 1 but we getting this behind us now, get all the administration behind us, get all the screening, the fitness test behind us and then we can really concentrate on rugby.”

The team goes through another session tomorrow before breaking camp on Saturday.

The Fijians play the Maori All Blacks at the ANZ Stadium next Saturday, before competing in the Pacific Nations Cup.
