Radradra, Tuimaba and Botitu

Fiji 7s Coach Gareth Baber is still hopeful to have superstar Semi Radradra, Aminiasi Tuimaba and Vilimoni Botitu join the team for the Olympics.

While speaking from quarantine in Brisbane, Baber says he has been keeping tabs on these three players who are playing in Europe.

Baber says Tuimaba and Botitu have already worked with him and the core of the team while Radradra is an exceptional talent and he can have an influence on the players around him.

Baber adds that Radradra is desperate to play in the Olympics.

He reiterates that nothing is a done deal yet.
