Expect the Springboks to keep the Flying Fijians in their own half tomorrow.
Former Flying Fijians coach, Ilivasi Tabua said with changes made to the Springboks lineup and considering the comments coming from the South Africa coach, Peter De Villers, it is evident that South Africa will not want to battle Fiji head on.
Tabua who has faced the mighty Springboks while playing for the Wallabies in the 1995 Rugby World cup added that our forward's need to step up as this is not just another game.
Meanwhile, having dodged a Welsh bullet, Springboks coach Peter de Villiers is more convinced than ever about the three ways his team can retain the Rugby World Cup.
Watertight defence, Pinpoint goal kicking and perhaps the biggest headache, getting inside the respective heads of the referees.
Fiji will take on South Africa tomorrow at 6pm and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station, Viti FM with the voice of rugby Malakai Veisamasama and expert comments from Ilivasi Tabua.
