FORMER national rep, captain, manager, coach and administrator Ratu Ilaitia Tuisese senior has called for support to the new Fiji Airways Flying Fijian coach Vern Cotter.

“It should be good, just seeing his profile that’s enough for us,” Tuisese said.

“His profile speaks for himself and his record also speaks for itself and he is only left to prove himself to our players.

“Whether he is good or our boys are not good, it will prevail.”

When asked for his message to the new coach, Tuisese said he should come and listen.

“Don’t bring anything else, just come and listen.”

Kiwi Vern Cotter is a two-time Super Rugby and Top 14 Championship winner. He will take the reins of the Flying Fijians program upon finalisation of his commitments with Montpellier.
