Fiji Barbarians coach Iliesa Tanivula is determined his boys are ready to make amends in the last day of competition at the Digicel Suva International Sevens.
The team lost their second pool game to Waimanu 12-nil but came out strongly with a 36-nil win against Tonga in their last pool game.
Tanivula said that the loss yesterday was a huge wake up call for his side.
Tanivula added that competition from the local teams has been tough but he has told his boys to follow the game plan and to enjoy the game.
The first Cup quarterfinal will see Waimanu meet Canada at 12:15pm.
At 12:38pm Police take on Suva, then at 1pm Ratu Felise meet the Fiji Barbarians and at 1:30pm the Josateki Savou coached Wardens side meet USA.

Tonga was too good for Samoa after they won 19-12 and Waisale Serevi's PNG side edged Western Force 17-12 and Tonga will now meet PNG in the second Bowl semifinals.
