The Vodafone Flying Fijians are improving each day and should be one the best ever when the 2015 Rugby World Cup gets underway next month.

These are the words of former Wellington coach, Alan Muir, who is assisting the Flying Fijians coaching staff.

The seasoned mentor says the players in the 31-member team have shown great character.

“I think there has been significant improvement, right from the start when they came in for the PNC and then it has lifted again in the last two week. We are in good space and the boys are in good heart, good mind and they are up for the challenge.”

The Flying Fijians depart for England on Monday and take on the hosts in its first match of the World Cup at 7am on September 19.
