“The win against South Africa has given them an enormous amount of confidence and they’re barely looking at us because they have Australia the week after. For them it’s just a training session but for us, it’s a game that we can learn from, an opportunity to get better.”

Cotter says by the end of the match, they should have a better of picture of where the team is at.

The Flying Fijians will take on Ireland in front of a sellout crowd tomorrow at 1am in Dublin.
