Fiji 7s team to be named tonight

Digicel Fiji 7s coach Iliesa Tanivula will announce his final 12 member team for the opening leg of the IRB 7s series at 6pm this evening.

Tanivula will name the players at the Digicel head office at Kadavu house where it is expected that most of the seasonal players have penciled in their names for this trip.

The captaincy role is likely to be shared by Jerry Burotu and Emosi Vucago while experienced players like Ilai Tinai, Watisoni Votu, Orisi Sareki and Nasoni Roko are in the running for a place in the team to Dubai and South Africa.

New comers like Nikola Matawalu, Malakai Kuribau and Joeli Lotawa will be keeping their finger crossed to also make the cut.

The Dubai 7s kicks off on the 4th and 5th of December and Fiji is in Pool D with Potugal, France and England.
