SYDNEY - Fiji’s forwards muscled up to keep their Pacific Nations Cup title defence alive and put their World Cup preparations back on track with a thumping 38-13 victory over Canada in Suva on Saturday.
The first four tries came from forwards with number eight Viliame Mata, flanker Peceli Yato and lock Leone Nakarawa crossing to give the hosts a 19-13 halftime lead and prop Peni Ravai powering his way over the line soon after the break. Four attempts to get the rolling maul going off attacking lineouts were stymied by the Fiji pack before the home side showed them how to do it to get replacement hooker Mesulame Dolokoto across the line for the final try in the 68th minute.
