On a flight from Nadi to Brisbane, the world #1 ranked team Fiji proved themselves large and in charge when an elderly passenger began suffering a serious health complication.
A passenger aboard the Virgin Australia flight says the team’s doctor and coach helped flight staff with the woman, who was falling in and out of consciousness. To make matters worse, they crew were forced to juggle the meal service while keeping an eye on the ill passenger.
What ever is a rugby team to do?

While the condition of the woman isn’t known at this stage, it’s comforting to know that smatterings of Fijian sportspeople still populate the sky, offering their services at a moment’s notice.
Pick up your game, rest of the planet.
Their next series kicks off in Dubai on December 4, and every other team have some serious brownie points to make up before then.
