“Jerry is a leader of the future of sevens rugby.”

Those were the words of Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s coach Gareth Baber as he compares Jerry Tuwai’s qualities as the same with sevens legend Waisale Serevi and urges Fiji fans to give time to the new captain.

Baber believes this a going right for the national side as Tuwai is also getting a lot of motivation and support from old players such as Jasa Veremalua, Vatemo Ravouvou and Isake Katonibau in the training camp.
