Players like Jerry Tuwai, Aminiasi Tuimaba, Ratu Meli Derenalagi, Vilimoni Botitu, Paula Dranisinukula and Josua Vakurunabili are sure starters for Fiji this weekend.

‘It was a blessing in disguise’.

This is the comments by Fiji Airways 7s coach Gareth Baber after not spending a few days with the team due to a bacterial infection.

Baber who joined the team two days ago says his absence can bring something special out of the players and management.

Fiji plays Kenya at 9:36pm tomorrow, meets France 12:42am Sunday and the final pool game against Samoa at 3:48am.

You can catch the London Sevens LIVE on FBC TV this weekend.
