He also witnessed the Fiji U20s scrimmage in Nabua yesterday and says much work needs to be done in scrums.

Overall, Smith believes both national teams have a wealth of experience in the backline and believes Fiji will be a sight to see at the Junior World Cup in South Africa next month.

While the Flying Fijians are expected to perform very well at the Pacific Nations Cup in Japan in June.
