Don’t count Fiji out, England warned

Veteran England No.10 George Ford has called on his team not to be carried away with their 25-7 win over Australia. 

England takes on the Flying Fijians in London this weekend. 

“We need to keep our feet on the ground,” the Test centurion warned. 

“It’s only one win, there’s loads we can get better at, but we know how dangerous the Fijians are going to be. 

“If you look back to last autumn we did lose a few games, but for me I’m still feeling the same now. This was a good win, a solid win, but it’s just a start, 

we can’t look any further than what we’ve got next weekend. When you come off the field you’re obviously happy you won, but you’re a little bit unsatisfied with aspects. 

“We need to keep our feet on the ground. It’s only one win, there’s loads we can get better at today and we know how dangerous Fiji are going to be next week,” the Test centurion told Rugby Pass.

Tuisova and Ravutaumada are expected to be named in the Flying Fijians Match 23 squad.
