Rugby: White believes Fiji could be a massive force at next year’s World Cup

# Rugby: Fiji’s new coach, Jake White, believes his charges could be a massive force in next year’s World Cup in Australia if he can add control and structure to their natural flair. They beat Japan, coached by Eddie Jones, 34-28 in his first match in the role on Saturday. Jones was his technical adviser when he coached the Springboks’ World Cup winners of 2007. Both countries now head to Europe for the Nations Championship, with Fiji playing France, Ireland and Italy, and Japan facing Wales, England and Scotland.
