Fiji will have to over come the physicality of the Georgians - McKee

Fiji Airways Flying Fijians John McKee says they are preparing for the physicality on which Georgia have made a name for themselves and believes the battle at close quarters will be decisive on Thursday.

McKee says it is going to be a different sort of game and they cannot expect to go out there and be able to throw the ball around.

He adds they have to win the collisions and the contact zone first and, if they can do that, they will then earn the right to go wide.

Fiji will face Georgia at 5.15pm this Thursday.
