Swire Shipping Fijian Drua players Kemueli Valetini and Waqa Nalaga are set to potentially make their debuts for the Fiji Water Flying Fijians this Sunday, having been named on the bench for the match against Scotland.
Head Coach Mick Byrne has selected a powerful front row, featuring Haereiti Hetet, captain Tevita Ikanivere, and Samuela Tawake. In the second row are Isoa Nasilasila and Ratu Leone Rotuisolia. The back row includes Ratu Meli Derenalagi and Kitione Salawa on the flanks, with Elia Canakaivata at No. 8.
Byrne has chosen to go with his reliable halves combination of Frank Lomani and Caleb Muntz once again. On the left wing, former Fiji Airways National 7s star Ponipate Loganimasi is paired with ex-league player Vuate Karawalevu. Inia Tabuavou will be at inside center, Apisalome Vota at outside center, and Isaiah Armstrong-Ravula at fullback.
Impact players off the bench include Mesulame Dolokoto, Livai Natave, Jone Koroiduadua, Mesake Vocevoce, Vilive Miramira, and Simi Kuruvoli.
The Flying Fijians will face Scotland at 5:40 am on Sunday.
