Former Fiji 7s rep Emosi Vucago is urging the Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s team to believe in themselves that they can lift the title at the HSBC SVNS New York 7s this week, saying that they should let go of past mistakes.
Vucago is now coaching the Yaro Chiefs 7s side that is currently playing in the 39th Fiji Bitter Nawaka 7s tournament, where they will meet Flametree Waimanu in the second round of elimination at 11am today.
He says in previous tournaments, defence was lacking and this could be improved before the tournament starts tomorrow.

Speaking on the Nawaka 7s competiton, Vucago says the tournament gives more exposure to their players where they can show their skills in 7s rugby.
Fiji will open their New York 7s campaign against Argentina at 2am tomorrow, followed by Great Britain at 4:56am and Spain at 8:14am.
The Cup semi-finals will begin at 4:28am Monday, while the Cup final is scheduled for 8:41am.
