Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka has given the Fiji Rugby Union (FRU) an ultimatum to call a meeting to address the recent dismal performances of the Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s team.
Speaking to the media after the official opening of parliament today, Mr Rabuka said if FRU fails to call a meeting, then the government will do so.
“Why have we achieved those results? Is that our best effort? Those will have to come in the discussion between government and management.” Prime Minister Rabuka said.
Many disappointed rugby fans in Fiji and abroad, including a host of former national 7s reps have voiced their concerns as the team is yet to win a title after 19 tournaments under the leadership of Ben Gollings.
