Fiji Bati were in high spirits after their training session in Wellington, giving Jarryd Hayne grief as he prepared for an interview with media this afternoon.
Hayne, 29, tried to keep his composure, but cracked after his teammates continued to give him stick after being put up to talk with media.
The Fijian half saw the funny side of his teammates' wise cracks, laughing along at their efforts to disrupt his interview.
"Hey it's Jarryd Hayne, the Hayne plane!" said one of Hayne's Fijian teammates.
The Fijian team went on to chant and cheer for the NRL Titans star.
Hayne apologised to the media for his teammates' disruption.
"Sorry about my friends," said Hayne.
Fiji take on the New Zealand Kiwis in Wellington on Saturday for their Rugby League World Cup quarter final match.
