Kuridrani, Vosaicake in Aust 7s side

Two Fijians Kirisi Kuridrani and Solomone Vosaicake have been named in the Australian 7s men's squad for the HSBC Malaga 7s in Spain this week. 

 

Kuridrani who plays winger in the full code and alternates as a back and a forward in 7s is the younger brother of former Flying Fijian skipper Nemani Nadolo and cousin of former Wallaby centre three quarter Tevita Kuridrani.

 

The Namatakula native is currently signed to Japanese club Honda Heat and previously played for the Queensland Reds in Super Rugby.

 

Meanwhile, Solomone Vosaicake has again earned his spot in the Australian side after an impressive performance in the two legs of the HSBC Dubai 7s. 

 

The 22-year-old was one of the young debutants named by former Head Coach Tim Walsh last year. 

 

Henry Hutchison will temporarily captain the side as Nick Malouf has taken leave to get married.

 

The HSBC Malaga 7s kicks off on Friday.

 

Australia 7s: Ben Dowling, Stu Dunbar, Henry Hutchinson (c), Kirisi Kuridrani, Darby Lancaster, Nathan Lawson, Maurice Longbottom, Henry Paterson, Dietrich Roache, Jed Stuart, Corey Toole, Josh Turner, Solomone Vosaicake, Yool Yool
