[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 568757, member: 57076"] I remember reading they didn't have a sponsor for some tournament or Tour or smt...just a few months ago. But it's not like they were rich before...or maybe the effects of the crisis has hit them badly, and with their guys in France n England ??... But it's just strange, because a national side like Samoa only has its players much, much better from playing in Europe. They're a team of mercenaries who join force and are labeled "Samoa", when everything/most of what they learn is in Europe. They've made considerable strides the past 3-4 years as everybody knows, and yet Fiji has sunk deep... And the scrum has always been important, I mean it's not like it was an invisible aspect of the game during the 90's, when they could compete...but they have traditionally conceded penalty tries, it's true...throughout the decades. They're just simply an entire tier down from Samoa and Tonga these days, it's really too bad, because they produce such athletic beasts I'd love to see the modern, full strength Fijian game well coached and organized, and HUNGRY.
