As the Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s side prepares for the SVNS HSBC Dubai 7s at the end of the month, one key area they are looking to improve on is their discipline.

Speaking to the media after the Fiji Blue 7s team won the final of the Fiji Bitter Mataso Nakorovou 7s, Fiji 7s coach Osea Kolinisau says they are going to work on their discipline and trying to be consistent.

He says they had a poor start in the final against Taikita Brothers, but he is thankful the boys controlled the situation.

Kolinisau says they will also work on their defence and winning the kick-offs.

The Fiji 7s team has left our shores this morning for Dubai.

Fiji’s first match is against Spain at 6.06pm on the 30th of this month, followed by their match against the USA at 9.52pm. They will play New Zealand in their final pool at 3.16am on the 1st of December.
