Flying Fijian coach, Samu Domoni Junior believes that his side being tagged as underdogs ahead of the one off test against the Wallabies is a blessing for his players.
Domoni touched down in Canberra today with his 24 member squad confident of giving the host a good run in the 15th Test match to be played between the two nations on Australian soil.
The former Wallabies rep said that while the Australian side has won 11 of their last 14 encounters, they will taste the strength of this Fiji side on Saturday.
His Australian counterpart, Robbie Deans believes that the Flying Fijian is worthy opponents as they have shown during the 2007 Rugby World Cup.
Deans said at the international level, rugby fans just want to see the best out of their team.
The Fiji and Wallabies test match kicks-off on Saturday at 9.40pm in Canberra.
