Team Manager Ropate Kauvesi said they will make a decision on Rawaca’s availability depending on his medical clearance.

All the players are expected to undergo a fitness test this afternoon while the team will break camp on Friday.

The overseas based players that have been eyed for the last leg include Leone Nakarawa, Josua Tuisova, Samisoni Viriviri and Waisea Nayacalevu.

Fiji is pooled with Samoa, Scotland and Wales in Pool B in the Paris 7s.

The team will leave the country next Wednesday to have one week camp in London before heading to Paris.

The Paris 7s will be held from the 13th to the 15th of next month.
