Fiji 7s coach Joe Savou said the team selected for the Hong Kong and Adelaide 7s tournaments is one of the best this season.
Savou said despite losing the first four tournaments in the 2007/2008 IRB World 7s Series, he's confident that now Fiji will bounce back to win the up-coming two tournaments this month.
Savou said some of the players selected in the 15-man squad lacked fitness because of their involvement in 15's rugby but they have enough time to work on that and put together a winning combination.
The players selected yesterday were Semisi Naevo, Mosese Volavola, Viliame Maya, Marika Vunibaka, Setefano Cakau, Emosi Vucago, Tomasi Mawi, Iliavi Satala, Lepani Nabuliwaqa, Epeli Vuniwaqa, William Ryder, Nasoni Roko, Timoci Matanavou, Ratu Naisa Nukurutabua and Jone Kuruduadua.
The Hong Kong 7s tournament will start on 28th of this month.
