FIJI Water Flying Fijians hooker Sam Matavesi believes the team has the right set of coaches heading into the Rugby World Cup this year.

Matavesi, who proved to be one of the fittest players during the training sessions at Welagi said it is good to have the set of leaders they had.

“It is really great to have a bunch of good coaches. They have been doing a really good job. Majority of them have played for Fiji and have the country at heart while the others come in with huge experiences,” Matavesi said.

The Northampton Saints player said the coaches have set out a plan which should benefit the players.

“We have seen some vigorous runs during the strength and conditioning sessions here while some have been light sessions. They have set up a plan and the players believe in it and we will work according to that.”

The Royal Navy Officer said the squad boasted some quality players who are sure to raise some eyebrows at the upcoming Pacific Nations Cup.
