England ready for Leone Nakarawa
Geoff Parling says England are ready for the threat posed by Fijian second row Leone Nakarawa.
Nakarawa’s offloading game has made him difficult to contain in both Pro12 matches for Glasgow Warriors and in games for his country.
Parling also acknowledged that Fiji’s set-piece work is stronger than ever to match their dangerous backline.
"They are much better organised now than maybe they have been in the past. They've certainly improved over the last couple of seasons.
"We've spoken about their number five (Leone Nakarawa), he's a hell of a player.
"The other guys there we know from playing in the Premiership so if we're not on it they are certainly going to be a threat."
