Fiji needs to maintain its heritage on how they play the 7s game - Rasta

Rugby analyst and former World Rugby 7s and Super Rugby referee, Rasta Rasivhenge says after reviewing the World 7s Series for the last two years, he believes Fiji needs to maintain its heritage on how they play the game.

Rasivhenge says in his view they need to maintain the skills, flair, and chaotic style of rugby because this is when Fiji is at its best.

Rasivhenge highlighted this while speaking on fijivillage Straight Talk with Vijay Narayan.

He says player discipline is crucial at times like the games in Perth this year.

Rasivhenge says discipline was one element that cost them the games.

Rasivhenge adds that it is a concern for everyone that Fiji is winless after 17 tournaments.

Rasivhenge says more self-reflection is needed from players if they want to win for the country.
