Digicel Fiji 7s assistant coach, Josateki Savou believes that players must make the right decisions on the field during the IRB 7s series if they are to improve their performance.
Savou said while he and Head Coach Iliesa Tanivula shoulder the loss in Wellington, a review of the game clearly indicated that some wrong decisions were made by the players which cost them the game.
He added that on the field, players have been told what game plan is to be executed but the decision lies on the leadership of the captain which the players must carry out.
Also in the last hour the Fiji 7s team was hosted to lunch by 7s wizard, Waisale Serevi at his residence in Las Vegas and he presented the side with some gifts.
Meanwhile, defending USA 7s champion, Samoa have boosted their line up with the inclusion of former captain Uale Mai.
Mai replaces Lolo Lui who has been suspended for this week's IRB 7s series.
Samoa and South Africa are the likely opponents for the Fiji 7s team in the quarter final stages in Las Vegas.
The USA 7s Tournament kicks off on Sunday morning with Fiji playing its first pool game against Canada at 7.52am.
