The Flying Fijians have no other choice, but to beat Australia to keep their chances alive of qualifying for the Rugby World Cup quarterfinals.

That was the gist of Flying Fijians head coach Simon Raiwalui’s interview after their disappointing 26-32 loss to Wales at Bordeaux, France, yesterday.

“We’ve to recover correctly, prepare well and push for that win against the Wallabies,” Raiwalui said.

“It’s a huge test for us against a good Australian side.”

After the end of the first round of pool matches, Wales and Australia are tied with five points each while Fiji is in third spot with two bonus points.

The Flying Fijians face Australia next Monday (Fiji time) at 3.45am.
