Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s coach Ben Gollings says it does not matter which teams they will come up against in the Sydney 7s as they will treat their opposition with the same focus when going up against big teams.

Gollings highlighted this when questioned by the media on the teams they will play in their pool matches.

He says they cannot afford to be complacent, and they should beat these teams.

Fiji will begin the defence of their Sydney 7s title against Tonga at 4.50pm today. They will face Japan at 11.28am tomorrow and play their final pool match against France at 5.33pm tomorrow.

The Cup quarter finals start at 8.37pm tomorrow, the Cup semi finals start at 5.06pm Sunday while the Cup final is at 9.26pm Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s will play Great Britain at 1pm today in their first pool match, they will then take on USA at 7 tonight, and will play Canada at 1.06pm tomorrow.

The Cup quarter finals will begin at 6.54pm tomorrow, the Cup semi finals will begin at 4.44pm Sunday and the Cup final will be played at 8.56pm Sunday.
