The Fiji Airways Men’s National side have finally won back to back Singapore 7s titles after beating France 21-12.<\/p>\n
Vuiviawa Naduvalo who scored Fiji’s first try also won Player of the Final for his efforts.<\/p>\n
Fiji’s other tries were scored by forward Kavekini\u00a0Tanivanuakula and nippy halfback Pilipo Bukayaro.<\/p>\n
For most of the match France seemed to have figured out how to shut Fiji down defensively, as they were always marking the channels where the Fiji team would throw an offload.<\/p>\n
Fiji led 14-12 at half time.<\/p>\n
Taking a look at the tournament as a whole while Fiji won all of their games, it seems all of those wins were from catch up rugby.<\/p>\n
This is something Head Coach Osea Kolinisau needs to work on with his team as they head to Australia for the Perth 7s next weekend.<\/p>\n
Fiji beat Great Britain 22-19 in their first pool game, they then thumped Spain 28-7 before defeating South Africa 24-19 in their last pool game.<\/p>\n
In other results, New Zealand edged South Africa 14-12 to claim bronze, while Australia thumped Spain 26-12 to claim fifth place.<\/p>\n
Fiji are now in the lead on the standings with 52 points, closely followed by New Zealand with 48 and South Africa with 46 points in third place.<\/p>\n
