“Developing rugby nations should not be overlooked.”

These are the words of former All Blacks and rugby commentator Justin Marshall as he urged tier one nations to give Fiji more exposure to international matches.

Speaking to Fijivillage, Marshall said Fiji needs more quality matches.


Marshall added there is immense talent in Fiji and the IRB should also look at developing rugby right from grass roots level.

Meanwhile, the Flying Fijians will try and maintain the form that saw them beat the Classic All Blacks ahead of their last two matches in the Pacific Nations Cup.

Fiji will face USA at 8.10pm next Wednesday and Tonga on the 23rd of this month.

Both matches will be held in Japan.
