Upcoming stars and brothers, Tomasi Mawi and Peni Rokodiva Junior, are gunning for a spot in the Flying Fijians squad for the 2011 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.
Tomasi Mawi, who jetted out of the country on Monday after signing a two-year contract with the French Division two side, Sportive Bressane, said he is always available to don the National jumper either in 7s or in 15s.
Mawi, who will earn up 26,000 Euros in a year, said in the next two years, he wants to play top level competition in France.
His brother Peni Rokodiva Junior leaves our shores next month to take up a three year rugby scholarship with England's Leeds Metropolian University.
The Fiji Under 20 World Cup rep, Rokodiva Junior said his dream of playing in England has come true and now his aim is to be part of the Fiji team to the 2011 Rugby World Cup.
