A DYNAMIC match-day 23 for the FIJI Water Flying Fijians has been named ahead of their Test clash against the Wallabies this Sunday in Newcastle, Australia.
The announcement was made by head coach Mick Byrne and team manager Paula Biu earlier this afternoon.
In the match-day 23, there is an infusion of European-based players and players from the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua who make up the squad.
Speaking on this, Byrne said a good relationship built up during the November Tests between them has been helpful in the preparation to the Test.
Preparation for the Test during training has taken place in the midst of changing weather conditions in Newcastle, however he said the team remained focused through it.
The Flying Fijians will face the Wallabies at 3.30pm this Sunday, at the McDonald Jones Stadium.
