The Fiji Airways Flying Fijians are facing a tough challenge in having all its squad members in New Zealand on time but coach Vern Cotter is determined that the team will be ready for the first test match against the All Blacks next Saturday.

Cotter says some players left late from their clubs as they were not able to get a release for them on time.

He says there are still some concerns about the Australian based-players but they are working with the New Zealand Government in getting them a flight to New Zealand for the All Blacks test match.

He adds everybody is aware of where they are and he is pleased with how the players have adapted well to the new norm.

The Flying Fijians will take on the All Blacks at 7.05pm next Saturday and 17th of July.
