November 16, 2019 7:00 am

The local players will certainly have a lot on their plates tomorrow against the Barbarians.

Fiji Drua mentor and Flying Fijians Assistant Coach Senirusi Seruvakula is pleased to see our local talents getting a chance to play.

It may be the first time 11 players will debut for the Flying Fijians but that makes it even more interesting.

Seruvakula says confidence will be key for the Flying Fijians.

‘It’s just a matter of consistency and concentration on Saturday but the thing that we really need is confidence if these guys have confidence they can do anything on the day’

Barbarians Captain Rory Best says they don’t know much about the majority of the players who will be playing tomorrow for the Flying Fijians.

Best adds for them it has been quite an enjoyable week after the dissapointments of the Rugby World Cup for some of them.

‘The great thing is you get coached by the guys that you have never been coached before there are players you played against many times and now you will play with guys I haven’t played with or against and you get that opportunity on Saturday’.

The match will also be Rory Best’s last international outing along with Springboks Rugby World Cup winning prop Tendai Mtawarira.

Fiji will take on the Barbarians at 3:30am tomorrow.
