Fiji Airways Fijian 7s Head Coach Osea Kolinisau has named a star-studded side for the HSBC Singapore 7s next weekend.
The side welcomes back Kaminieli Rasaku and Terio Veilawa, who return from injury. Veteran forward Sevuloni Mocenacagi, young half-back Filipo Bukayaro, and speedster Iowane Teba also rejoin the team.
Kolinisau said it was a difficult decision to make as the players gave their all in the past two weeks of training.
“As a coach, it is always hard to make decisions on choosing the final squad, which is a good thing because it means the boys know they have to work extra hard to get a spot,” he said.
