Mulevoro: Trust key to Fiji’s success
On this year’s HSBC Sevens World Series fans will once again have their chance to get involved through social media by voting on their favourite try from each of the nine rounds.
Collins Injera collected the most votes in the opening round in Australia, while Fiji’s Emosi Mulevoro has been voted as the ‘fans’ favourite’ from the Emirates Dubai Sevens.
Fiji had two tries in the seven nominees, both set up by Pio Tuwai, and although Benito Masilevu’s try received a lot of votes, it was Mulevoro’s effort in the 44-0 semi final defeat of New Zealand that won.
“First when I saw Pio was coming alongside me when I intercepted the ball, I passed to him, and then he shouted to call me to come around,” said Mulevoro on the try.
“He said in Fijian to me to run behind him, so I ran around and I knew he would flick the ball back to me.
“I didn’t expect it to come behind him like it did, I thought he would pass it in front, but I was very happy to see the ball come out of the back like that – it was perfect timing”
