Ryder who was part of the winning 2005 Sevens Rugby World Cup Fiji side is part of the Fiji Legends side that will play the Classic Wallabies at 2pm tomorrow.

Ryder is currently travelling to Suva from the Western Division with his 2005 winning teammate, Viliame Satala.

The former Fiji 7's playmaker says he has been working hard to get back into the National 7's team.

Ryder says it will be a great opportunity for him tomorrow to reunite with some of the heros of the past.

William Ryder, Lemeki Duidomo, Samu Saumaisue, Nasoni Roko, Emosi Vucago, Neumi Nanuku, Jonetani Vula and Viliame Satala will be amongst the heroes of the past pulling on the white jersey for the Fiji Legends.

The star studded Classic Wallabies team will have Fijian born Wallabies, Samu Kerevi, Radike Samo, and Lote Tuqiri and recently retired Australian greats Stephen Moore and Rob Horne, as well as Wallaby capped Melbourne Rebels star Laurie Weeks.

The Fiji Legends will play the Classic Wallabies at 2pm tomorrow and the Fiji Airways Drua will take on Melbourne Rising at 3pm at Ratu Cakobau Park.
