Fiji Airways men’s 7s coach Gareth Baber is expected to test all his players in the pool games at the Oceania tournament which kicks off today at ANZ Stadium in Suva.

Baber says it’s important for all the players to get the feel of the tournaments as they expect a great challenge from their rivals.

_“Well I look at the tournament as something important and see exactly what we going to need in the second and third game. Obviously we got the Solomon Islands first and then we play Papua New Guinea and we know both teams will be gunning for us.” _
