Sevuloni Mocenacagi marked his return in France at the Toulouse 7s last weekend, but this week in London it’s his younger brother, Kavekini Tabu.

The 27-year-old Nukuilau villager from Navosa is in the Fiji 7s 13 member squad for the London 7s which starts tonight.

Tabu who was one of the Fiji 7s traveling reserves to the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games went to France earlier this year as a medical joker for Top 14 club La Rochelle.
