William Ryder
The Fiji Rugby Union has finally confirmed that Bua lad William Ryder's contract with the Digicel Fiji 7s team is terminated.

Ryder was one of the three players who was earlier suspended by the Fiji Rugby Union Games Committee after misconduct on the last leg of the IRB Series in Scotland.

This means Ryder's chances of representing the Fiji 7s team in the future also looks in doubt. Ryder left for Japan to join his new club without informing the FRU officials.

Meanwhile, Fiji Rugby Union's Operations Manager Vilikesa Rinavuka stressed that in the case of Lepani Nabuliwaqa, the star rover is not suspended but has only been dropped and could still represent the country in future tournaments upon review of his behaviour.

As earlier mentioned, Etonia Naba's suspension has been lifted after the Games Committee reviewed the manager’s report and could not find any reports against him.
