The inspirational coach confirmed the news on X, formerly Twitter, after a brilliant campaign where he guided a well-supported Fijian side to the quarter-finals of the Rugby World Cup.
Meanwhile, even after the quarter-final loss to England, the boss praised his team for laying a foundation for future generations.
“For 15 weeks these boys have worked hard and we will celebrate that. We’re hurting now in terms of the result but I couldn’t be prouder of this group in terms of what they’ve put in. They’ve built something for the next generation of Fijian rugby players. They’ve laid a foundation,” Raiwalui said.
“We’re hurting at the moment and it will hurt for a long time because it was something we had built and we thought we could go further. The belief in the team has always been there. I’m bursting with pride.”
