The Australian 7s select team admits that while the weather will not be in their favour they are always up for a good challenge.

Arriving in the country today ahead of the McDonalds Fiji Coral Coast 7s, captain Dally Bird acknowledges that this is a great opportunity to go up against some of the best 7s players not only from Fiji but around the world.

Bird says he looks forward to the some of the world’s loudest crowds and cannot wait too learn a few tricks from opponents on game day.
