Digicel Fiji 7s Coach Iliesa Tanivula hopes that the young and new squad that he has announced last week to represent Fiji in Dubai and South Africa will have an edge over the other teams that will be taking part.

Tanivula said while most of the other teams will opt for experience, his side will be the underdogs as they will keep other teams guessing, as there are a lot of unknown players in the side.

He added he has full confidence in the side that he has announced, as these boys have shown their worth at training and during the past camps.

Looking at the team that was announced last week, captain is Emosi Vucago, accompanied by Seremaia Burotu, Watisoni Votu, Sitiveni Waqa, Samuela Saqiwa, Risiate Tadulala, Nikola Matawalu, Mitieli Nacagilevu, Nasoni Roko, Josaia Lotawa, Saimoni Nuku and Josefa Bole.

The Dubai 7s will be held on December 4-5.
