Fiji Head Coach Vern Cotter has selected Dragons prop Mesake Doge for the country’s Autumn internationals campaign.
Doge, who joined from French side Brive in the summer, has started in all four of the region’s URC games so far this season.
The powerful front row forward has been rewarded for his impressive form and will potentially face some of his Dragons team-mates as Fiji take on Wales at the Principality Stadium.
Fiji will take on Spain in Madrid, followed by the clash in the Welsh capital a week later before completing their Autumn schedule against Georgia in Spain.
Dragons Strength and Conditioning coach Dan Baugh will also link up with the flying Fijians and will lead their S&C team for their Autumn internationals campaign.
