After pulling out from the last leg of the World 7s series, 29-year-old Ilai Tinai knows that he will achieve his dream he set a few years ago.

Tinai who is from Lomanikoro village in Bua made his debut for Fiji in 2008 and was part of the victorious Hong Kong 7s team last year and this year as well.
