Newly named Flying Fijian 15s openside flanker Sean Morrell is fully aware of the task ahead of him in the Pacific Nations Cup.
With 3 of the best loose-forwards in the form of Akapusi Qera, Apolosi Satala and Sisa Koyamaibole been ruled out, Morrell will have a big role to fill in the team.
Speaking to Fijivillage as the team marched into camp today, the Auckland B flanker is already looking at the bigger picture.
He comes from a soccer family with dad Stan Morrell a well known player in the local soccer arena and grew up playing football till the age of 16.
Sean said he used to watch the days when Fiji once ruled the 7s rugby code in Hong Kong and he was hoping that the time will come for him to also don the white jumper.
The national 15s rugby team leave for Nadi this afternoon where they will prepare for the opening PNC game against Tonga on the 13th of this month in Nuku'alofa.
