He has already crossed the try line nine times collecting 45 individual points.

He was also the DHL Impact Player in the Cape Town 7s.

Captain Jerry Tuwai has scored nine tries this season and has collected 47 individual points.

Vatemo Ravouvou and John Stewart are also top performers for Fiji according to statistics by World Rugby but they have been stood down due to disciplinary issues.
