The Flying Fijian 15s rugby coaching staff have made 8 changes in the side to take on Wales but the message in camp is clear that they want a win on Saturday morning.

Manager Talemo Waqa said that they have 30 players in the team and they need to rotate players to know how well they can play at this international level before next year's World Cup.

Waqa added the inclusion of Ifereimi Rawaqa, hooker Vili Veikoso, Campese Ma'afu and Malakai Ravulo as changes to the forwards means that they want to have more stability in the scrum and also winning quality balls from the line-out.

In the backline the inclusion of young Josh Matavesi at fullback shows that time might be up on veteran Norman Ligairi while Sireli Naqelevuki and Napolioni Nalaga's mistakes last week have caused them a spot in the run on team.

They have been replaced by Vereniki Goneva and Michael Tagicakibau.

The Fiji and Wales game kicks-off on Saturday at 8.30am.
