Sevuloni Mocenacagi stands out as the only remaining player from the Fiji 7s team that celebrated victory at the Cape Town 7s in 2018. In that memorable final, Mocenacagi contributed significantly by scoring a try, leading Fiji to triumph over the USA with a scoreline of 29-15, under the guidance of then-coach Gareth Baber.
While Mocenacagi holds the distinction of being the last survivor from that celebrated squad, other players like Captain Jeremaia Matana and seasoned athletes such as Pilipo Bukayaro, Terio Veilawa, Filipe Sauturaga, Vuiviwa Naduvalo, and Iokimi Vunaki were key members of the recent Ben Gollings-led team that secured bronze at the tournament last year after defeating Ireland 14-7.
With a recent victory at the Dubai 7s, Fiji is set to aim for another strong performance this weekend, seeking to build momentum and further enhance their reputation in the rugby sevens arena.
As the legacy of previous victories continues to motivate the team, fans and supporters are hopeful that the current squad, led by Mocenacagi’s experience, can replicate their past successes and inspire a new generation of players.
