Is there any way the Pacific Islands national rugby authorities can strengthen their voices for more international matches against top teams?
That’s the only way Tier Two rugby nations can grow from strength to strength.
Fiji is centrally located in the Pacific and perhaps receives more international flights.
Perhaps, Fiji can take the lead by offering more test matches for visting teams against our Pacific brothers in Lautoka or Suva.
Just as much as Fiji rugby has progressed, let’s not forget our sporting ambitions as a Pacific region.
If there is a will, then there is a way. Let’s start now so that come 2027, the Pacific teams make a bigger impact.
