The financial hardships faced by the Fiji Under 18 rugby side will not deter them today.

Speaking from Australia to Fijivillage, Fiji schoolboys skipper Mesulame Dolokoto said the challenge is just another reason for them to give their all.


Dolokoto said they know New Zealand loves their rugby but his side has what it takes to rattle the Kiwis.

The 18 year old QVS head boy also said they are not worried about scouts at the moment because national duties come first.

Fiji defeated the New South Wales country Under 18 team on Tuesday 74-10 and will play the New Zealand schoolboys today at 5pm.
