“My expectation Fiji 7s would win the Paris title and the World Series title but I was a little bit disappointed that didn’t happen but talking about the present I want to thank you guys and congratulate you because throughout this season you’ve displayed an incredible performance.”

Seam also thanked the Fijian’s contribution to the development of French rugby.

Three hundred Fijians are playing professional rugby in France which twenty-three are playing in the French Top 14 rugby competition.
