Jones Sets Sights on Historic Win Against New Zealand After Fiji Defeat

The rugby gods have granted the coach another opportunity to face his old rival. After a tough loss to Fiji in the Pacific Nations Cup final, Jones quickly shifted his attention to the next challenge.

“We’re going to take a short break, but the priority now is preparing to beat New Zealand. We need to develop a game plan that can defeat them.

“New Zealand will have a physical advantage over us, so we must rely on our speed and tactical intelligence to overcome them.

“It’s not about what happened in this game; it’s about what we do to beat New Zealand. I don’t think Japan has ever come close to defeating them, but we aim to be the first team to push them to the limit. That’s our goal, and it’s my sole focus right now. The past is behind us.”
