Bio
Akapusi Qera is a dynamic openside flanker, considered by many pundits as one of the best broken-field runners in the Aviva Premiership. His work at the breakdown is also highly commended. He currently plays for Gloucester Rugby who he signed for from Pertemps Bees after the 2007 World Cup. His debut for Fiji came in 2005 against Samoa. Qera was one of the stars of the 2007 World Cup, scoring three tries in his four performances.
