Fijiana 15s expecting a physical encounter against NZ Wahine tonight

The Rooster Chicken Fijiana 15s are expecting a physical match when they play the New Zealand Wahine Maori at the HFC Bank Stadium tonight.

Coach Senirusi Seruvakula says the New Zealand side will be a tough team, as majority of their players have just finished playing in their local competition.

He says they will be coming with all guns blazing, but for them, they will need to be simple and execute their game plan well.

Seruvakula says they have named six forwards and two backs in the reserves mainly because they know they will be fronting some big girls so they will need to keep up with the momentum in the second half when their bodies get tired.

He adds this first match is to look at the combination of these girls and secondly to see what these girls can bring to the game before the final selection for the Rugby World Cup.

The Fijiana 15s will meet the New Zealand Wahine Maori at 6pm today.

The Fiji Rugby Union has confirmed that admission will be free for the games.
