Indiscipline can affect outcome of a match: Baber

Fiji Airways men’s 7s team Head Coach Gareth Baber has always been informing his players on indiscipline and how it can affect the outcome of a match.

Baber says the physicality of Fijian rugby had its own definition to the opponents, but the players must be aware of the rules applied in 7s rugby.

“When you come to international level, 7s is under the spotlight because of the nature of the game and is one on one and those transgressions in the law are highlighted and we talked about it afterwards going from Dubai where we had two red cards and a yellow card which were poor.”
