Fiji Bati on defence against the Australian Kangaroos

The Vodafone Fiji Bati will be working on their fitness and execution of set moves ahead of the Rugby League World Cup at the end of this month.

Coach Mick Potter made this comment after the Tri-Nations series against the Australian Kangaroos and the PNG Kumuls last weekend.

The Bati failed to score any points in the two matches.

The team has some good attacking options in Akuila Uate, Suliasi Vunivalu, Jarryd Hayne and Kevin Naiqama.

Vunivalu was impressive against Kangaroos where he made some clean line breaks and looked threatening every time he had the ball.

Titans star Jarryd Hayne says they have had some good experience and exposure playing against the World Champions.

The Fiji Bati will play their first game at 9.20pm on the 28th of this month against USA.
