Reece wants to play for Fiji but a bid for All Blacks call up may rule him out - McKee

Flying Fijians coach John McKee believes Crusaders winger Sevu Reece wants to play for Fiji at the World Cup but admits the chance to secure his professional future in Super Rugby and bid for an All Blacks call up could rule him out.

Reece moved to New Zealand in 2014 to attend Hamilton Boys High School and made his provincial debut for Waikato in 2016 and is now on the All Blacks radar thanks to his outstanding form.

McKee told Radio New Zealand that he acknowledges there are real pressures on players like Reece to make decisions for not only their own playing futures but the good of the families.

Crusaders coach Scott Robertson has also backed young winger Sevu Reece for an All Blacks call up, in the wake of his hot form in Super Rugby this year.
