Flying Fijian 15's rugby coach Samu Domoni Jnr has made 10 changes to his starting line-up from the side that lost 49-3 to the Wallabies to take on Japan in the Pacific Nations cup.

First choice halfback Nikola Matawalu will have a chance to impress the selectors and Jonetani Ralulu is at fly half.
Vice captain, Sireli Naqelevuki and Ropate Ratu are the inside backs with Jaoji Dakuvula making his debut from fullback.
