Gareth Baber, who led Fiji to Olympic sevens gold in Tokyo, has admitted there are two nations he hopes to help at international 15s level and they clash at the Millennium Stadium on Sunday when Wales face the Flying Fijians.

Welsh born Baber represented his country at 7s and was the assistant coach of the Wales under-20 side before opting for the shortened version of the game which saw him take over from Ben Ryan as Fiji head coach following the gold medal triumph in Rio in 2016.

Under Baber, the Fijian 7s team won 11 tournaments on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, the 2018/2019 HSBC WRSS title and having opted to end his association with sevens, he will become an assistant coach with Edinburgh once the Flying Fijians have completed their Autumn tests against Georgia in Madrid on November 20. Fiji beat Spain 43-13 on Saturday in the first game under Baber who is temporarily in charge of the national team as head coach Vern Cotter is still in New Zealand due to travel restrictions.

      Wayne Pivac reviews Wales’ loss to South Africa

      Baber told Fiji Times:“Going back to coach 15s, if my path takes me to the Flying Fijians in the future then as I said before there are two teams in my life I can say that, it will be Wales and Fiji. Obviously the reason for that is because it is where my heart is and what I love doing.

      “Fiji is a big part of my life. But then I have a bit of learning to do before that as I get myself back into the 15s environment. I have to be put under that pressure and will have to prove to myself that I have those credentials because ultimately for both nations my dream is to keep coaching to the best of my ability and that is possibly something that comes in the future.

      “Having been out of Wales for some time, I have the opportunity to play against Wales in the Millennium Stadium – something I never thought would come my way. You want to win every game and it will be strange but my sights are firmly set on helping Fiji.”

      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.
