Quote ="roopy"Joey Leilua has been dominating his opponents up till today, but he more than met his match against Waqa and Koroibete.
Milford didn't look as impressive against a well structured defence either.
Koroibete has probably been taking tips from Uate I think. Uate has been playing like an extra forward in his own half for a few years - as one of his trainers told me a few years ago speed = power, and he loves to use his power. Koroibete has not been very impressive so far this tournament, but today he played like Uate, and not just as a speedy winger and a good finisher, but as a metre eater doing hit ups.'"
It is interesting that Uate as been coaching Koroibete. The Fiji team must be developing its individual player components just by being together on tour. We need to have more internationals involving Fiji. That would be a lure for some undiscovered talents in country, and the NRL recruitment officers would have a great time.
If Super League clubs want to find new three quarter line talent that is currently in short supply in England, they could do no better than to send their recruitment officers to Fiji, accompanied by Andrew Johns and Brad Fittler.
Yesterday Fiji was playing three specialist wingers in its three quarter line with Sisa Waqa in the centres. They also played another young winger Radradra in the forwards!
I would think that if there was a 4x 100 metres sprint relay between all the World Cup teams Fiji would win it comfortably.
