Ba lad Pio Tuwai is being eyed by Digicel Fiji 7s Coach Iliesa Tanivula as the answer to the national 7s team problem in winning quality ball from kick offs.

After "Man Mountain" Semisi Naevo secured a contract in Japan for 2006, he left behind a vacuum and it was hard to find a replacement in his calibre. Tuwai will be supported by Etonia Naba and Ilieas Ratuva.

Manager Alifereti Malo said Tuwai, who was given the nod to prove his worth in the USA 7s after Rupeni Nasiga was ruled out, knows he is required to fill in big shoes in this tournament.
