Hold on to possession, do our kicks and next week we will roll Italy - Kativerata

Control the ball hold on to possession and do our kicks, then next week we will roll Italy, look at Scotland and then go from there to the quarter finals.

Assistant Fiji Bati Coach Wise Kativerata highlighted this in a post match interview where he also thinks there were a lot of positives in the game against Australia.

🇫🇯 How's your touch, Sunia?

It's brilliant! Turuva uses his feet to round Tedesco and score Fiji's second of the night.#RLWC2021 | @fijirugbyleague | @BBCSport | #AUSFIJ pic.twitter.com/TTbaN2amkT

Kativerata says they did really well in the first 20 minutes, then they gave away 7 possessions, and that is why the Kangaroos scored tries.

He says the players that stood out for him are 19-year-old forward Joshua Wong who played the full 80 and Sunia Turuva from the backline.

Lessons learnt to take into next weeks game, Kativerata says they need to hold on to the football.

The Fiji Bati will face Italy at 1.30am next Sunday.
