The Digicel Fiji 7's will make more than 6 changes to its final line up for the next leg of the IRB 7's series in Wellington and Las Vega.

With only Jerry Burotu, Watisoni Votu, Emosi Vucago, Miti Nacagilevu, Nasoni Roko and Saimoni Nuku retained from the side that reached the semifinal in Dubai and South Africa it means that the selectors will bring in some new faces when they announce the team on Friday.

Burotu and Votu are the old hands in the forwards with Semesa Gonevou, Nemani Nagusa, Apisai Navoro, Leone Nakarawa, Waqabaca Kotobalavu, Jim Vakadranu and Apisai Nayabo fighting it out on who will get the nod upfront.

Coach Iliesa Tanivula has worked with Nagusa and Gonevou in their trip to Darwin which could favour the two players while Nayabo proved his worth during the Uprising International 7's.

Waqabaca and Nakarawa are military officers and with the travel sanction in place they likely to miss out.

The Fiji 7's team will be name on Friday and they are in Pool D in the New Zealand 7's with South Africa, France and Canada.

The New Zealand 7's in Wellington kicks off next Friday.
