Rawaqa, Lewaqai likely for National 7s team
While the 12 member team will be named on the 19th of January, Village Sports have been informed that Isei Lewaqai and Dan Rawaqa will be part of the Joe Savou team to New Zealand.
Lewaqai will be the answer to the aerial battle where Fiji is missing the services of man mountain Semisi Naevo, while Rawaqa will get a chance to show his worth in the playmaker position.
Meanwhile, Captain Etonia Naba joined the national 7's training camp this afternoon after not turning up on time for the morning training session citing family commitments at his home in Nadroga for the delay.
Naba is the only experienced forwards player in the Fiji 7's side as he has been a regular member of the side from last years IRB 7' series.
Also, tomorrow the coaching staff will decide whether they will bring in more players to be part of the Fiji 7's team training squad.
The 12 member team for the Wellington and San Diego 7's will be named on the 19th of January after the National 7's in Lautoka.
