Coach Saiasi Fuli says the six will help balance out the squad.

Fuli says the six are the future of Fijiana 7s and they have also been included in the youth commonwealth squad.

Fijiana stars Raijieli Daveua and Vani Buleki who were injured at the Hong Kong 7s are also back training.

Knowing it’s a short season, Fuli is confident the team has what it takes to book a spot in Paris next year.

He adds the team is positive, training well and looking to end things on a high note in Toulouse.
