Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s Team Captain Jerry Tuwai says spending time in quarantine will not be an excuse for the team in the Oceania 7s.

Tuwai says staying in quarantine was a necessary sacrifice.

He further says playing in the Oceania 7s is a really good platform to test the new players ahead of the Olympics.

The Fiji Men’s 7s team will take on Australia at 4pm tomorrow in the Oceania 7s.

Fiji will then face the Oceania 7s team at 9.30pm tomorrow.

The national side has two more games on Saturday where they take on the All Blacks 7s team at 4.22pm and Australia at 9.30pm.

Fiji has two games on Sunday as well.

They take on the Oceania 7s team at 2.30pm and New Zealand at 8.07pm.

There are six rounds of matches in the Oceania 7s where each team will play each other twice.

The highest-ranked team after six matches will be declared the winner.

The Women’s 7s team will play Australia at 5.06pm Friday and New Zealand at 10.14pm.

They will play the Oceania 7s team at 4.44pm Saturday and Australia at 10.36pm.

The Women’s team will play New Zealand at 3.17pm and then play the Oceania 7s team at 8.33pm Sunday.
