The New Zealand 7's team is expecting another tough weekend as they find themselves in the pool of death at the South Africa 7's.
The World Cup Champions will be up against England, Samoa and Japan.
The All Blacks Sevens side have made their worst start to the sevens World Series since the 2005 and 2006 series.
That was the only year the Vodafone Fiji 7's team managed to win a series title as they forced New Zealand to finish fourth in the standings.
Meanwhile Fiji leads the World Rugby HSBC Sevens Series standings with 39 points, ahead of South Africa on 37 and Australia on 29 while New Zealand has 28 points from the opening two rounds.
The South Africa 7's kicks off this Saturday with Fiji taking on France at 9.30pm.
They will then face Canada at 12.45am Sunday before meeting Scotland at 6.26am Sunday.
The cup quarter finals will start at 12.03am Monday, the semifinals will be held at 3.39am while the cup final will be staged at 6.30am Monday.
