The Vodafone Fijiana XVs will need a good set-piece strategy to counter a strong Manusina Samoa side when the two teams clash this weekend in the second round of the WXV3 tournament.

After securing a comfortable 38-3 win over Hong Kong, Coach Mosese Rauluni says their physicality around ball carriers and defence could have been better and that will be a big work-off for this week.

Rauluni says they are very happy to take that win which has given the players some confidence, and moving forward to a tough game against Samoa.

The Fijiana XVs will take on Samoa at 2am Sunday in Dubai.
