National 15's rugby coach Ilivasi Tabua highlighted to his 7s counter-part Josateki Savou yesterday that there is a lot of room for improvements in the national 7s squad especially in the defense department and the ruck situation.

Tabua who spent the whole of yesterday working with Savou at Lawaqa park made it clear that the squad will have to lift its performance to stand any chance of winning in Wellington.

Savou said that his players know the challenge that lies ahead of them.
