“Let us exert fear into the attacking team with our defense”.

Those are the words of 2007 Rugby World Cup coach Ilivasi Tabua if the Flying Fijians want to match the South Africans on Saturday night.

Tabua who met the Springboks in his playing days when defending the Webb Ellis Cup in South Africa in 1995 while with the Wallabies, also coached Fiji to their RWC quarterfinal loss in 2007.

Known as a ferocious tackler, Tabua said Fiji cannot afford to commit the same mistakes from the Namibian game, knowing what the Springboks will bring into this game after their close 17-16 win against Wales last night
