The Rooster Chicken Fijiana XVs players have been told that they were now at the Women's Rugby World Cup and they need­ed to be at their best.

These were the words of Fijiana sevens captain, Rusila Nagasau, who is likely to be at flanker against England in their Pool C opener on Saturday at Eden Park, Auckland, in New Zealand.

"We've been talking about the (England) game," she said.

"I've urged the girls that we need to be at our best if we are to beat the best."

Nagasau said it had been a chal­lenging journey for her.

"The big challenge was making the transition from sevens rugby to fifteens, but I'm so grateful to be here."
