It will be history in making at the Uprising Fiji International 7's tournament as two of the world's best 7's brains are expected to work together for the first time.

Fijivillage Sports off-shore sources have reliably informed that 7's wizard, Waisale Serevi has expressed interest to coach the Digicel Matai side, working hand-in hand with New Zealand 7's team coach, Gordon Tietjens, who will act as the Technical Advisor.

Tietjens has already confirmed his presence in the tournament but talks are almost complete with Serevi.

Fijivillage Sports understands from its off-shore sources that the organizers of the tournament are holding talks with Serevi and his Manager with an outcome set for tomorrow.

The Digicel Matai text select team will be chosen by the rugby fans in the country by texting the initials of the players name.

Meanwhile, the pools of the Uprising Fiji International 7's tournament have been released.

Samoa which is top seed has been grouped in Pool A with Red Rock, Nadroga and the US Grizzlies.
