The resulting uproar was expensive to Fiji Sevens. Serevi has already gained his credential in the sevens code, and nothing Rugby House is doing will diminish it. [...]

Despite all the criticism, accusations and talk about curses, as an ardent fan of Fiji rugby I wish to support the national sevens squad and am convinced that in a week’s time Dubai will see the best of Fijian Rugby.

The call by the Interim Education Minister to ban mobile phones in schools is not a harsh decision but a very wise one and Mr Vaka should learn what the word “harsh” really means and should [...]

I watched and listened to Graham Eden’s commentary last weekend during the Marist 7s and I couldn’t believe my ears at the kind of venom Graham Eden was spewing out against the Lomaiviti players particularly Serevi, Satala and Vunibaka.
