Fiji Vs Portugal: Cotter resigns a few months before Rugby World Cup 2023

The Fiji team is looking for a new head trainer seven months before the RWC 2023 after New Zealander Vern Cotter left because of his causes. The 61-year-old took control of Fiji in 2020 after training French clubs Clermont Auvergne and Montpellier. He also took Scotland to the 2015 World Cup quarter-finals. Tevita Tuiloa, the union's acting chief executive, refused to be drawn on who could trade Cotter.

It could be a Fijian or overseas. Fiji Rugby was blessed to have Vern Cotter come on board, but the call to resign came directly from him due to personal reasons, Tuiloa told a press session in Suva. Time is against us to find a trainer to take the Flying Fijians to the next level at the France Rugby World Cup 2023, but we are poised we have the players.

Fiji has been drawn with Australia and Wales both of whom also transformed head coaches recently. As well as Georgia and Portugal in Pool C at the RWC 2023, which will take place in France and starts on September 8. Fiji's best show was at the 2007 competition in France, where they touched the quarterfinals after a win over Wales team, before losing to final champions South Africa.

Scott Robertson presented France Rugby World Cup team head coach role

Crusaders head coach Scott Robertson could get his first flavour of Test rugby at the RWC 2023 with Fiji. Robertson has won six super rugby titles in his six years at the helm of the Crusaders and will be eyeing

to make it seven from seven in 2023. However, the 48-year-old is excited to tackle the dare of Test rugby, openly disclosing that he wants to win the Rugby World Cup with two different nations.

Although he is deeply linked with the New Zealand job post the France Rugby World Cup 2023, he could get his first blow at the William Webb Ellis Cup with Fiji. Temporary Fijian Rugby Union chief management Tevita Tuiloa exposed that he has touched out to Robertson over the empty head coach role following Vern Cotter’s resignation.

Tuiloa said that he would love to have Scott as a head trainer or technical mentor for the Flying Fijians in this year’s global contest. Tuiloa says he’s trying to tempt Robertson, an avid surfer, to Fiji by offering him free housing to test out his surfing skills in Tavarua. I know he’s a surfer, so I told him, look, you can come to cloud break in Tavarua and come and surf some clouds, some tubs, some big waves there and come and teach the Fiji Rugby World Cup side.

The hunt for Cotter’s standby before RWC

We’ll give that to you for free, and you can help our boys touch the quarter-finals, Tuiloa told the media. Fiji is on the search for a new head trainer ahead of the Rugby World Cup after Vern Cotter quit with Midi Olimpique reporting that the Fijian Rugby Union desired Cotter to be based in Europe during 2023, while the coach desired to be with his family in New Zealand. Despite the short reversal before the contest.

Tuiloa exposed that there were several attentive parties in the head trainer role for Fiji. The applicants have been tapering down to four, and the new trainer will be named this week. He added that Fiji’s goal is to touch the quarter-finals of the RWC, an exciting task as they are in Group C along with Australia, Georgia, Portugal and Wales rugby teams.

Tomas Appleton is motivated ahead of RWC 2023

Portugal skipper Tomas Appleton will have a few days bound in his diary for 2023, his 30th birthday on July 29 and his side’s France Rugby World Cup opener against Wales in Nice on September 16 for example. The first date on his notice in a big year for the sport in his nation, though, is this coming Saturday, February 4. That is the day that Portugal horde Belgium in their rugby Europe championship starter in Lisbon. Rugby fans can buy Portugal Rugby World Cup Tickets at exclusively discounted prices.

Rugby in Portugal is rising and this year is a boundless chance for everyone to get to know the sport even better, centre Appleton said. I think young kids need a national side that can motivate them to play and there’s no better place to watch this team than in an RWC 2023. Unfortunately, just now rugby is not a big game in Portugal and the Portuguese media is not giving rugby the right care, but as players, we want to do everything we can to sponsor things.

Before we think about the Rugby World Cup, we are attentive to these upcoming games in the Championship. We’re going to face great players and we need to bring our ‘A’ game every game. To be truthful, I think this race is going to be a great challenge for us because we need to show our value and show once again that our spot at the World Cup is well-grossed. I think it might grow some burden on teams and that’s a wonderful thing.

Competition with semi-finals and final is best

Having a tournament with semi-finals and finals is going to set up more remarkable games. Last year in the rugby Europe contest, Portugal won two, drew one and lost two to end fourth, but given the close flora of their games it was a case of ‘what might have been’. The 2022 Rugby Europe Championship was a tough tournament for us. As we were looking to qualify for the RWC at the time, we let the burden influence us too much, Appleton echoes.

We lost key games, but looking back I think those overthrows changed the way we faced our enemies and especially the way we approached the last minutes of games. We’ll be a much tougher team this year. As stated, new boys Belgium are the first enemies of Portugal in this year’s showpiece event. They are in Pool B along with Romania and Poland, so what does the captain expect from the Belgium matchup?

We know them well and we know they have a comparable style of play to us, he explained. They like to play a fast-speed game and we’ll have to have solid protection and be controlled. It’s our first game since we fit for the France Rugby World Cup 2023 and we want to put on a good show. Portugal vs Belgium.
