PNG to use Suva 7s as build up

PAPUA New Guinea national coaching director Waisale Serevi says his side will use the Digicel Suva International 7s as a build up to the New Zealand 7s next month.

The PNG side will be participating in the International Rugby Board World Sevens Series for the first time in Wellington.

Serevi who took up the role of coaching director with PNG last year said his side had a point to prove at the Suva 7s.

He said they are not here just to make up the numbers.

"The preparation has been good and the boys have been training hard," Serevi said.

"We are looking forward to the Suva 7s. We have brought in the main PNG 7s team. This will be the team which will play in Wellington. There are some young players in the side."
