The Flying Fijians coaching staff will name the final 30 member team to the Rugby World Cup after the All Blacks test match on the 22nd of next month.
Coach Samu Domoni Jnr will select his 28 players for the Pacific Nations Cup from the current 43 member squad with the rest of the players to continue with their training program.
Technical adviser, Greg Mumm said that the PNC provides a platform to build a team for the World Cup in September.
The remaining seven players are expected to be named tomorrow with decisions still need to be made on players with injuries.
None of the Army boys were selected although Nikola Matawalu, flanker Dale Tonawai and Leone Nakarawa played well in the trials.
