The Fiji Rugby Union may see more players getting overseas contracts after their wonderful performance in the Rugby World tournament.
FRU's Peter Murphy said most of the local based players were approached by many scouts in France and will shortly be negotiating with the FRU on their contracts and the offers made to them.
Murphy said Fiji's style of play has caught the eyes of many top officials from the overseas clubs.
The FMF Flying Fijians arrive back at 8:30 this morning.
Meanwhile the Interim Government in conjunction with FRU will have celebrations for the team players and officials tomorrow at the Post Fiji Stadium.
A march procession by the Police, Fiji Military Forces, the rugby players and school children will begin from Vatuwaqa Primary School at 2pm and proceed to the Post Fiji Stadium where the President Ratu Josefa Iloilo will welcome our heroes.
The programme also includes the introduction of players to the Interim Prime Minister and presentation of gifts by the sponsors.
