The FMF Flying Fijian's logistics team is planning for the side's important trip to Nantes at the weekend to ensure there are no disruptions to their preparation for the must match against Wales.
High Performance Unit manager, Peter Murphy said from their base camp in Mosaic to Nantes will be a long trip and they have made it known to the team that they will be leaving early to allow the players to settle ahead of the game.
Murphy adds the message from the coaching staff to the players is simple, go out and win.
The Fiji/Wales match will kick-off at 3am on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Samoan hit man Brian Lima's World Cup appearance is over after he was handed a three week suspension for executing a dangerous tackle on England fly-half Johnny Wilkinson, during England's 44-22 Pool A win at the weekend.
The ban effectively ends Lima's career, as the 36 year old has indicated that he will retire after the tournament and Samoa has just one match remaining against the USA on Thursday morning.
Lima was cited for the tackle, his second big hit in the tournament.
In the world cup matches tomorrow mooring, Canada takes on Japan at 4am and Portugal play Romania at 6am.
