The Fijiana have been spending the last two weeks training on the field while also getting some valuable gym sessions.

21-year-old lock Mereoni Nakesa says they have some new faces in the team and they’re quickly adapting to the system.

Nakesa says it has been a challenging last few days of preparation but they know it will only get tougher from here.

In the next two weeks, the Fijiana will take on the best from PNG, Tonga and Samoa in the Pacific Combine.
