Boooooy we were lucky to come away with the win. Tonga held their own and didn’t stop applying pressure till the last 15 mins. Also shoutout to the Fijian subs who came in with impact 🫡. Moreover, both teams went home with a more clear picture of where they stand in regards to set plays, player positions, combinations and any weaknesses spotted that might need patching up *line outs for example. But that doesn’t steer away from the fact that I have complete confidence in this Fiji team, like the skipper said “we’re taking it one game at a time”. Next focus now is Samoa 💯 #ThemBulas
