The Fiji Residents rugby league team insist they've moved on from last week's drubbing at the hands of Newcastle, and are even optimistic there could be a repeat fixture next year.
The Bati wrap up their brief Australian tour today against a New South Wales selection side looking for a huge improvement on their 72-0 thumping by the Knights NRL team.
The General Manager of Fiji National Rugby League, Steve McLellan, says the team isn't despondent and is viewing the Knights game as a learning curve.
He says they're hopeful the matches aren't a one-off occurrence.
"I mean it was important for us that - we've said all along we wanted to be competitive. I mean that scoreline doesn't indicate that but we also wanted a good crowd so Newcastle can do the sums and say we haven't lost money on the venture and we'd love to be able to put it as an annual event."
