Five players with Fijian links have been named in the First Nations Pasifika XV side that will take on the British & Irish Lions tomorrow night in Melbourne.

The players include Brumbies forward Lington Ieli, who hails from Rabi, Seru Uru, Filipo Daugunu, Mesake Doge, and Mesake Vocevoce.

Ieli will start at prop, Uru at flanker, and Daugunu on the wing, while Doge and Vocevoce have been named as forward reserves.

The side features ten players with international experience—nine Wallabies and one Flying Fijian—with most of the squad already having faced the Lions during the current tour.

Former Wallabies star Kurtley Beale will start at fly-half.

The First Nations Pasifika XV will take on the British & Irish Lions at 10pm tomorrow.
