Flying Fijians coach Mick Byrne emphasizes the importance of physicality and a strong tackle contest for all their players, regardless of their position.

He believes that if the team wins the tackle contest, they can create opportunities for one-on-one situations.

The Flying Fijians will face the All Blacks at 2.30 pm next Saturday in San Diego.

The All Blacks are scheduled to play against England at 7:05 p.m. this Saturday. Wales will take on Australia at 9:35 p.m. on Saturday, and the Springboks will play against Ireland at 3 a.m. on Sunday.

Coach Byrne is pleased with the Drua players’ integration with the Northern Hemisphere players and the strong connections within the team.

He also appreciates the family ties among the players through their confederacies, which naturally bond them. The players have bonded through campaign mode, and there is a high energy and enjoyment among the boys.

Byrne believes this is an exciting time for Fiji Rugby, allowing them to prepare well before the next Rugby World Cup.
