All Blacks Sevens coach Gordon Tietjens says Sam Dickson and Brad Webber are still in the frame for selection depending on their progress with injuries.

The door also remains open for others in the event of injuries to squad members.

New Zealand has been drawn in Pool A in Paris alongside Singapore Sevens winners Kenya, Portugal and Russia.

The team is currently third in the season standings behind South Africa and series leader, Fiji.

Tietjens says he is excited to have Iowane brothers back in his side.

Tietjens has taken 16 players to Europe so they can share the workload and has given all the players an opportunity to make the final team.
