Fiji Qualifiers for France 2007

Fiji have appeared in four world cups, progressing to the knock out stages on one of those occasions. If not for a mistake near the end of the 1987 quarter-final against France they would have beaten them and reached the semi-finals of the inaugural competition.

The Entertainers

Fiji are well known as the most entertaining side in sevens rugby. They have failed to translate that into success in the fifteen man game. Fiji have always lacked a disciplined enough pack, to launch their skilled backs at the opposition. Do expect to see the Fijians running it from their own goal line and some of the many tricks they have up their sleeves.

Fiji's Rugby World Cup shirtFiji have changed colour scheme for the 2007 Rugby World Cup. The new shirt to be seen in France this September is available now. The shirt is white with blue and black and not red and black. The Fijian Home Rugby Shirt is made by Kooga and unlike many still has a full collar.

Fiji In Pool 'B' Rugby World Cup 2007

Everyone knows and has seen the New Zealand 'Haka' before the match. Fiji have their own war dance the 'cibi', look out for them attempting to instill fear into the likes of Australia, Canada, Japan and Wales, before their Pool B games.

Fiji qualified for the Rugby World Cup 2007 by coming second in the Oceania qualifying group, just missing out to Samoa on points difference. Currently ranked 11th in the world Fiji's best World Cup showing came during that first appearance in 1987 when they lost in the quarter-finals to France, to emulate that success would be quite an achievement for the side. We see them having a close match against Wales and ultimatly losing to them thus not reaching the quarter finals.
