Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s Team Coach Gareth Baber says if they have to play behind closed doors and without fans in the stadium, then they will have to adjust to it.

Fiji are one of the fan favourites in any tournament and are always backed by a large number of fans.

Baber says this is bigger than his thoughts on whether fans should be present or not, it is about the health of the world.

When questioned by Legend FM News whether fans will be allowed or not once the 7s season resumes, World Rugby says they continue to monitor the dynamic and ongoing situation with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic.

They say they are in continual dialogue with the host and participating unions and International Rugby Players and any decisions regarding return to play will always be taken in line with the relevant government and public health authority advice.
