England wing Anthony Watson admits he cannot wait to take on the mighty Nemani Nadolo in their Rugby World Cup opener against the Vodafone Flying Fijians this Saturday.
The 21‑year‑old, who has impressed during the RWC warm‑up fixtures, is likely to start on the right wing and go toe‑to‑toe with Nadolo at Twickenham.
And that is a prospect the electric Bath and England finisher is excited about.
Watson says it is something he looks forward to and he expects a massive challenge.
Watson knows he has an opportunity to be a national hero at this World Cup and remembers how thrilled he was when England won the tournament in 2003, with fellow winger Jason Robinson one of his favourite players from that side.
Meanwhile England head coach Stuart Lancaster plans to field his strongest side against Fiji.
The Vodafone Flying Fijians will take on England at 7am this Saturday in the opening clash of the Rugby World Cup.
