La fédération fidjienne de rugby (FRU) a mandaté le cabinet Global Elite Sports pour superviser la recherche d’un entraîneur pour son équipe nationale de rugby à XV.

Global Elite Sports a ainsi un contrat d’exclusivité pour travailler avec la fédération et trouver un remplaçant à Simon Raiwalui, parti gérer la haute performance à World Rugby dans le courant du mois de novembre.

Peter Mazey, le président de la fédération, a indiqué au média FijiLive que l’agence internationale avait déjà aidé un certain nombre de nations du tier un dans leur quête de sélectionneurs et est convaincu qu’elle saura trouver le profil qu’il faut pour encadrer les Flying Fijians.

Réponse fin janvier – début février

« Les candidatures sont ouvertes et les personnes intéressées ont jusqu’au 12 janvier pour se déclarer », a indiqué le président.

« Le très beau parcours des Fidji à la Coupe du Monde de Rugby en France a réellement élevé le niveau et nous avons déjà observé un certain intérêt de différents entraîneurs partout dans le monde.

« Nous ne prendrons pas part au processus de sélection et on laissera l’agence faire son travail, sélectionner les meilleurs candidats et établir une short-list. »

Peter Mazey a précisé que les candidats retenus seront soumis à deux entretiens avant la fin du mois de janvier et le nom de l’heureux élu sera annoncé quelques temps après.

All Blacks player ratings vs England | Steinlager Ultra Low Carb Series first Test

I was excited about the Razor error, but a few things are bothering me about this team. It’s looking less like a bright new dawn, and more like a conservative look to the past. We’ll never know how much pressure comes from above to select established players, but imagine if Razor wiped the slate clean and created the new baby blacks, the financial hit to NZR would be huge. Not that such drastic measures are needed, but a few selections still puzzle. TJ and Christie. Neither look like bright picks for the future, both are experienced but with limitations. I understand why you would pick one as a safe pair of hands, but why both? Jacobson is no impact player, and it makes no sense to me why you would pick both Blackadder and Jacobson in the same squad. They cover pretty much the same positions, and Jacobson has never demanded a start. Blackadder has struggled to stay on the field, but if he is picked, play him. Let’s see what he can do, we know enough about Jacobson, and Blackadder has far more mongrel. I would have preferred to see Lakai in the squad, he offers a point of difference and the energy of youth. Plus he would have kept Papali’i honest and created tasty competition for the 7 jersey. Ioane. The experiment goes on. The bloke is a fantastic winger but still fails to convince as a centre. Has NZR invested so much money in him that there’s pressure to play him? Proctor was by far the better player all season and played next to Barrett. Play him; a specialised centre, in form. Crazy I know. Our two wingers are very good, but we still miss a power runner in the backline. Faiga’anuki was a big loss and could have filled that role at wing or 13. More money on young players like him and less on aging stars would not go amiss in NZ rugby. Perofeta had a decent game, but the jury is still out. The lack of a specialist fullback in the squad is another head scratcher. Admittedly it’s early days and a win is a win, but hopefully some more innovation is in the plan otherwise I see this squad struggling sooner or later.
