		Serevi was recalled to lead the Fiji 7s team for the Bordeaux and London tournaments in 2004 after a lengthy, winless period.
		Although Serevi does not have the speed of the young, frisky lad who caught the world by storm at the 1989 Hong Kong 7s, his experience and knowledge are ever-increasing.

		Tavanavanua said Serevi had done an impressive job as coach of the Fiji 7s team in the last 12 months, and the FRU preferred to retain his services.

		Serevi has appeared in nearly 50 top-level sevens tournaments worldwide, winning five Hong Kong titles and one World Cup winners’ medal, and leading Fiji to this year’s Commonwealth Games silver.
		Whilst most Scots might link Serevi with the inaugural World Cup Sevens, held at Murrayfield in 1993, when he produced a dazzling array of skills, he knows what it is to beat Scotland at 15s, having done so with the Barbarians and, more famously, in Fiji’s record 51-26 victory in Suva in 1998.

		Fiji's hopes at the 2003 Rugby World Cup were dealt a cruel blow on Friday when it was confirmed that Sevens master Waisale Serevi had been ruled out of the rest of the tournament with a broken collarbone.
		Although Serevi is not their first-choice fly-half, he has often come on in the role of a 'super-sub', after regular fly-half Nicky Little had laid the platform with his structured game and educated boot.
		A scan on Friday confirmed the initial prognosis that the 35-year-old Serevi had broken his right collarbone in a process of making a tackle in the eighth minute of the victory over Japan.

		Charters also confirmed that flanker Alivereti Mocelutu had broken the radius bone in his forearm - he had to go off in the 18th minute of the match - and was also out of contention for the remainder of the campaign.
