Fiji and NZ will still be the top teams - Rush
Eric Rush

New Zealand 7's great Eric Rush believes Fiji and New Zealand will still be the top teams in the upcoming World 7's series even after losing their coaches.

With Ben Ryan leaving after the success at the Rio Olympics and Sir Gordon Tietjens leaving the All Black 7's after many years of success, Rush believes Fiji and New Zealand are the two most consistent teams.

Meanwhile Rush also shared what he believes were some of the things that Fiji did right before the Olympics.

When asked if more is being done to educate players on spinal injuries, Rush believes that it is much better now as players are taught how to tackle from a young age.
