They need mental strength to overcome some of this teams.

actually for me that is not the issue. we have beaten each of those teams. (except SA i think). the problem is a game plan problem and a tackling problem. when we meet NZ - we need to change our tact (last year we beat them at home kwao) and beat Australia kwao. what we need is to have a game for a team. our style of rugby works against northern hemisphere teams - karibu zote. however we need to study and ask ourselves... which teams beat the teams that beat us. Wales for example beats fiji properly! kwanza vizuri sana sometimes. when we meet wales we beat them and when we meet fiji they beat us - its all in the style of play. have a game plan for a team. did you notice that we kept the ball more when we started taking contact against fiji? on defense... ensure that you force breakdowns on fiji... fiji thrives with ball on hand phase after phase after phase. take the game to them... tackle and ensure that there are rucks on every phase and if we use people like big wheels vizuri we shall win. its all about modelling our attacks and defense as to suit the team we are playing.

@McDoba the last 2-3 year statistics suggest otherwise. The margin of loss was too appalling. When Fiji has walloped this fat they have gone on to win the main cup, here we were going through a tormenting crucifixion at plate final suggesting this Fiji team is not up there with the rest.

It also goes without saying this first leg was a tard below previous year standards. The AB team is very new and wiped the turf with all the other teams which doesn't happen often in the first few legs after the have tinkered with the team.

@Kausha, in the last 2-3yrs we have been these teams one or two times but overally they always get the better of us. Fiji was knocked out of the Main Cup by the eventual winners NZ so you can't simply say that they are not up there with the rest!

@ McDoba tungoje Dubai, then we can compare notes. Bear in mind we rarely play fiji and contest with Inglaterra is has been very close statistically. Our guys are not looking very conditioned especially the new caps.

Interesting career choice. Hope shukua deosn't suffer a brain explosion and stuff him up somewhere down the line.

Good thing though all Treu's teams are very conditioned and very speedy. I see us within a short time becoming top 3 and eventually dorminating last few legs of this season's circuit and 2015 circuit.

Treu's philosophy and attention to detail is will change how we play 7's. His set up is a case study for all team sports in this country including our volleyball girls, Cricket team and harrambee stars. Hope Okinyi will think ahead and go do a shadow show on him Kenyans would be amazed at how detailed he prepares which is what kina Tietjens do. My problem with Friday his Rugby philosophy was not using our natural play styles. We are more agile and prefer speed rather than bondonaing all day long like the English.
