The FMF Flying Fijians veteran players are not seeking retirement from international level at this stage.
There were some reports that captain Mosese Rauluni, Seru Rabeni and Kele Leawere will retire from top level rugby after the World Cup.
Speaking to Village Sports, Rauluni said he will keep playing until his body gives up and also gives the example of 7s legend Waisale Serevi and Samoa's Brian Lima.
Kele Leawere, who is the vice-captain of the team, said his aim is to also play in the 2011 tournament in New Zealand.
Seru Rabeni, who is focusing on next month's World Cup, said he has a few more years of international rugby left.
Meanwhile, the FMF Flying Fijians had two training sessions in Saint Affrique yesterday. Their opening match in the Rugby World Cup will be against Japan on Thursday September 13th at 5am.
