Fiji coach Ilivasi Tabua has made several changes to his side for their latest Pacific Nations Cup clash against Australia A in Brisbane on Sunday.
The notable changes iloose forward Sailosi Rabonaqica replace Aca Ratuva at flanker while Mosese Rauluni retains the captaincy.
The impressive midfield combination of Kameli Ratuvou and Sireli Naqelevuki is replaced with Marika Vakacegu and Vereniki Goneva at inside centre and outside centre respectively.
Ratuvou and Naqelevuki have been bracketed on the bench with Jonetani Ralulu and Saula Radidi respectively for Sunday's clash. The two impressive and experienced centres will undergo another fitness test during the Captain's Run on Saturday to determine their fate.
"We have a few medical decisions to make after the Captain's Run tomorrow," Tabua told the Fiji Rugby Union website." I'd like to give both Kameli and Sireli an opportunity to pass the fitness test at the Captain's Run before we can finalise changes."
In the other change in the forwards, Graham Dewes replaces Alefoso Yalayalatabua. On the bench, Tiko Matawalu comes in for Viliame Seuseu, Wame Lewaravu replaces Rabonaqica and Aporosa Vata comes in at the expense of Nemia Kenatale.
