7s team has a lot to prove

The Digicel Fiji Sevens Team has a lot to prove in the opening IRB Sevens Series tournament in Dubai this weekend.

Tanivula said that in the City of Gold, Fiji has dug deep in their past visits with all of their top players available but this team has only the likes of Emosi Vucago, Jerry Burotu, Watisoni Votu and Nasoni Roko as seasonaed players to guide the team in trying to end their 12 years of losing.
