Former Fiji Water Flying Fijians midfielder Semi Radradra says he and the other players who spoke out against Fiji Rugby might have just played their last games for Fiji.

Radradra says they are sacrificing their career by speaking out.

However, Interim Chair for Fiji Rugby Peter Mazey says the Trustees or the Board have no say in the selection of players for any of our teams, whether it be 7s or 15s.

Mazey says they are all selected by the Head Coach and his technical team.

He says these players are professionals and should be acting professionally within their contract.

The Interim Chair says he understands the players have frustrations that have to be addressed.

He says they have to get to the bottom of it and he and the Trustees feel the same, which is why the investigation is happening immediately to check on all these things.
