Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s team coach, Gareth Baber wants 2 or 3 different styles of rugby played against Fiji in scrimmage sessions.

Baber says he wants to see how the players cope without possession and what they can do when they have possession.

He adds they will be playing warm up matches with teams that play different styles of rugby, which will test the players.

He says this was one of the reasons why they went to Utah early.

The Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s team will only play one elimination game and go straight into the cup quarterfinals.

Fiji’s elimination match will be against either Japan or Uruguay at 3.53pm next Saturday.

Barring any upsets, they will either meet Argentina or Canada in the Cup quarterfinals at 10.54am next Sunday, they will either meet Australia or New Zealand in the cup semifinals at 8.02am Monday the 23rd of this month and will either meet South Africa, England or USA in the final at 12.49pm Monday the 23rd of this month.
