Across the Pacific, rugby is considered the national sport. But nowhere is this passion more on display than in Fiji. When players take the field, they embody the warrior spirit of their ancestors. Fans travel for hours just to cheer their team on from the stands. Regardless of what side you're on, things always get pretty heated. But why? Is it deeper than just heat of the moment passion? We asked Fijian journalist and rugby lover Lice Movono and anthropologist Dr Tarisi Vunindilo about why rugby feels like so much more than just a game in Fiji.
