Vodafone Fiji 7s coach Ben Ryan said selecting the team for the last leg of the World 7s Series in Scotland and England was the most difficult selection he has made so far.
He said this is due to the competition within the squad.
Ryan said they believe that they can be a lot better in these two tournaments.
Three players who featured in the Hong Kong 7s have been dropped from the final 12 member side for the last leg.
The players are Setefano Cakau, Joeli Lutumailagi and Samu Saqiwa while Semi Kunatani, Leo Naikasau and Viliame Mata have been recalled.
Ben Ryan have retained the core of the side that took part in Hong Kong and Japan which include Apisai Domolailai, Benito Masilevu, Pio Tuwai, Emosi Mulevoro, Waisea Nacuqu, Donasio Ratubuli, Vatemo Ravouvou, Samisoni Viriviri and Osea Kolinisau who is also the captain of the side.
Meanwhile, speedster Samisoni Viriviri said hopes to continue his try scoring spree in the last two tournaments as it will be his last because he will leave for France after the series.
The Vodafone Fiji 7s team is pooled with Wales, Argentina and Kenya in the Scotland 7s which will be held on the 3rd and 4th of next month.
