The Fiji Airways Flying Fijians have all been cleared from their 10-day isolation period and are preparing for their match against Georgia on Monday.

This is after the team had confirmed 29 positive cases of COVID-19 which resulted in the cancellation of Fiji’s Autumn Nations Cup group matches.

Coach Vern Cotter told The Independent that it is a great feeling to see the boys out on the field training, having fun throwing the ball around, even if the temperature was minus four degrees.

22 players and seven management staff had tested positive.

Monday's game will be Cotter's first match as the head coach of the Flying Fijians after taking over the leadership role from John McKee at the beginning of the year.

Fiji meets Georgia at 1am Monday in the final match.
