Fiji men’s 7s coach Osea Kolinisau, who is in a race against time to help defend the country’s Olympic Games sevens gold medal in Paris this summer, has rated the players fitness currently at just five out of ten.

Getting the players in the right physical shape was mentioned by Gareth Baber, who coached the squad to gold in Tokyo to back up their 2016 gold in Rio. Baber has been drafted in to oversee the Olympic preparations, supporting Kolinisau whose next challenge is the Singapore leg of the HSBC SVNS.

Kolinisau replaced the sacked Ben Gollings in March and Hong Kong was his first tournament in charge. He told the Fiji Times at training this week: “Maybe we are around five right now in a scale of one to 10, we are not there yet.

      “This session is just to see where the boys left off and we want to continue from there. We are not there yet, we are still working on our fitness, on our tackle techniques and it’s good to see the boys all in.

      “We felt like we gave that tournament (Hong Kong) away, we had our chances. We had six miss-tackles which was too much.

      “We were up 12-7 against New Zealand and we had four straight opportunities to capitalise on and I think if we had scored another try, we should have finished that game off. It comes with time and the boys will have to learn the lessons the hard way, some are teachable, but some will be learnt when they play. “

      Veteran Jerry Tuwai, the double gold medal-winning playmaker, is taking part in training hoping for a recall.

      TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY IS A GENUINE CRYPTO RECOVERY COMPANY


      It was a cold morning when I first realized the full extent of my loss. I had invested 150,000 euros into an online crypto platform, believing in their promises and the allure of quick financial success. But as the days passed, I discovered it was all a scam. My money was gone, and with it, my dreams of financial security.

      The feeling of helplessness and devastation was overwhelming. I tried everything to recover my funds contacting authorities, searching for solutions online, and connecting with others who had been through similar scams—but nothing seemed to work. I felt completely lost, as though there was no way back.One Sunday, feeling utterly defeated, I decided to visit Grace Church in Dublin, Ireland. I was searching for some peace and comfort. During the service, I shared my story with the congregation, explaining how I had been scammed and lost everything. I didn’t expect much—just a chance to speak to someone.

      Afterward, a fellow parishioner came up to me. He had been listening closely, and after hearing my situation, he shared that he had once been in a similar place.

      He had fallen victim to a scam too, and like me, thought his money was gone for good. But someone had recommended a service called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY to him. He decided to reach out to them, and with their help, he had managed to recover his lost funds.

      He suggested I contact them, believing they could help me too.

      Though I was skeptical, I was also desperate, so I wrote down their contact information. That evening, I called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY. From the moment we spoke, I felt a sense of professionalism and empathy that I hadn’t encountered before. They didn’t treat me like just another case. They listened to my story, took my concerns seriously, and reassured me that they would do everything they could to help.The recovery process was detailed and transparent. They kept me updated regularly, explaining each step they were taking. Weeks passed, and though I was anxious, I held onto hope. Then, out of nowhere, I received the incredible news: TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY had successfully recovered 95% of my 150,000 euros. It felt like a miracle. I couldn’t believe it. Thanks to the team at TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY, I was able to regain my financial footing and rebuild emotionally. I’m now more cautious than ever, but I’m also deeply grateful.

      Without the kind recommendation from that parishioner at Grace Church, I would never have found the help I so desperately needed.

      Today, I’m on the path to full recovery, and I can confidently say that TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY gave me a second chance.

      Their dedication and expertise truly made all the difference in my life.
