Another Fijian may feature for the New Zealand 7s team after Coach Gordon Tietjens named Taranaki's Waisake Naholo in his training side.

Naholo joins the likes of fellow Fijians Lote Raikabula, Save Toakula and Tomasi Cama Jnr who were named in the training squad and then went on to don the New Zealand jumper.

The young Fijian has been named alongside five fellow Taranaki players to prepare for the next round in Wellington next month.

Tietjens will review match footage from the weekend's national sevens in Queenstown and then trim the squad to 15.

If chosen, this will be the first time for Naholo to represent New Zealand in the IRB 7s circuit.

The New Zealand IRB 7s will be held on the 4th and 5th of next month.
