Pacific Islander to renew rivalry with England winger
Pacific Islanders winger Vilimoni Delasau is relishing the chance to go head-to-head with Ugo Monye in the 15-a-side format of the game.
Delasau, who plays for French side Montauban, was one of the stars of the 2007 World Cup, scoring three tries for Fiji - including a memorable try in the pool game against Wales.
However it is on the IRB Sevens circuit that he has regularly caught the eye - and it is where Delasau first came up against Monye, who will make his debut for England against the Pacific Islanders on Saturday.
And Delasau is looking forward to the match-up against the Harlequins winger.
"I am very happy to be in the Pacific Islanders squad," Delasau told
skysports.com.
Tough
"I have played against Ugo in the Sevens. He is a very fast winger and a strong runner.
"It will be a tough match up but I will be giving it everything I have got."
The Pacific Islanders go into the match without being given much of a hope of upsetting England - particularly as they have yet to win a Test in six attempts since forming in 2004.
However Delasau remains confident that can shock world rugby be registering that first win.
He said: "Myself as a player and the boys as a team are looking forward to Saturday.
"We want to go out and win. We have lost the last six Tests so we want to cause an upset at Twickenham."
