Kolinisau pleads for support ahead of Perth 7s this week

Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s coach Osea Kolinisau is pleading for support as they prepare for the upcoming HSBC Perth 7s in Australia this week.

After a successful outing in the McDonald’s Fiji Coral Coast 7s over the weekend, Kolinisau says their focus has now turned to the Perth 7s which is the bigger picture for them.

He says the team is looking forward to this weekend’s tournament and all they need is the support and prayers of the people of Fiji.
