France based winger Napolioni Nalaga and Sireli Bobo are now being eyed by Digicel Fiji 7s Coach Iliesa Tanivula to strengthen the forwards to defend the Melrose Cup.
Tanivula revealed this move to Fijivillage yesterday that the duo will assist Semisi Naevo and Apolosi Satala who is his trump card in the forwards.
He believes the inclusion of these overseas based players will be an added bonus to the side.
Tanivula will lead his Fiji Warriors side in the Marist 7s but his side will be missing the likes of Rupeni Nasiga and Iliesa Ratuva who are injured.
After yesterdays training run, Etonia Naba and Niumaia Cakacaka did not turn up while Pio Tuwai is carrying an injury.
The Fiji Bitter Marist 7s will kick off at 9am at the TFL Stadium with Fiji Warriors taking on Covenant Brothers.
You can catch the live commentary of this game on Viti FM.
