the Autumn Nations Series is upon us and what comes with it is Ireland Rugby playing host to Fiji at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin. Fiji’s line-up to confront Ireland Rugby in Dublin on Saturday shows three changes from their exhilarating success over Ridges in Cardiff a fortnight back.
Lead trainer Mick Byrne had rolled out discount improvements for last week’s success over Spain however has reestablished his bleeding edge players for their visit to Aviva Arena.
Ponipate Loganimasi replaces star winger Semi Radradra, who is suspended subsequent to being shipped off against Grains.
Luke Tagi replaces Sam Tawake at tighthead prop Mesake Vocevoce is liked to Isoa Nasilasila in the subsequent column.
Fiji have never beaten Ireland, and their last excursion to Dublin finished in a 35-17 loss.
