Coach Richard Walker is optimistic, stating that the key to success will be to finish on top of the scoreboard. While he acknowledges that there are areas that require improvement, he’s confident in the team’s ability to transform their efforts into wins.
Walker has expressed his satisfaction with the girls’ performances during the recent competitions held in Dubai and Cape Town. He commended the players for their hard work and highlighted their potential for further development. After analyzing game footage, he noted, “I actually thought the girls played some really, really good rugby, which is good to see.” This positive assessment points to the team’s effective attacking strategies and structural play, which Walker believes can serve as a strong foundation for their upcoming matches.
Even though not every match has resulted in victory, Walker’s comprehensive review of their gameplay has bolstered his belief in the team’s quality. With a clearer understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, the Fijiana aims to turn their sporadic flashes of excellence into consistent wins as they approach the tournament. As the team prepares for competition, a wave of optimism surrounds their potential for success in Perth.
