Updated: 8:52am – Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s coach Gareth Baber says they want it all and will be going all out to claim victory at both the Hong Kong Sevens and Commonwealth Games 7s.
Baber says the expectation from fans in Fiji and the team itself is to win every tournament they are a part of.
Baber believes the players always think of their families back home especially the children of Fiji.
Fiji has lifted the Hong Kong 7s title six times in the past nine years and are bidding to become the first team to win the tournament four years in a row.
New Zealand has opted to send a second‑string team with their head coach and front‑line players all focusing on the Commonwealth Games.
Baber says the Hong Kong 7s is not a tournament Fiji could ever approach half‑heartedly.
Barring any upsets, Fiji is likely to meet either USA or Argentina in the quarterfinals, Kenya or Australia in the semi-finals or South Africa or England in the final.
Fiji will play Samoa at 12.43am Saturday in their first pool match of the Hong Kong 7s, we play Russia at 5.54pm Saturday and then take on New Zealand at 9.54pm Saturday.
The quarterfinals will be held at 2.15pm Sunday, semifinals will start at 7.41pm Sunday while the Final will be held at 11pm Sunday.
