Door Still Open for Players
In an interview on our Radio station Viti FM from Wellington last night, Kasibulu said apart from the 30 man squad already announced for preparation to Hong Kong they will still be out looking for players who take it to the next level at the Marist 7s next month.
Kasibulu adds that this would allow for players who did not participate in the BP National 7s to show that they are still worthy of selection.
Meanwhile, Fiji Rugby Union CEO, Ratu Timoci Tavanavanua, had earlier indicated in a press statement, dated 17th January, 2008, players interested in representing Fiji in Wellington and Hong Kong were required to participate in the BP National 7s that was held in Lautoka on 19 January.
Meanwhile, overseas based players in William Ryder, Mosese Volavola and Semisi Naevo are the only exceptions for missing out on local tournaments and will still be considered for selection to Hong Kong due to club commitments overseas.
