Grew up in the 90s in Fiji when HK 7s coincided with Children's Sunday and then later in my 20s seeing a team like this absolutely on fire on the field at the the holy grail of 7s in HK! Now in my 40s just reliving this epic game all over again as if it were the first time watching live on screen back in our living room at home ! Love love love Fijian flair ❤❤❤

Look at his 15s team prior to 2007 Rugby world cup. His squad beat Wales and took Fijii to the quarter finals. Tabua just accompanied the team on RWC week because Wayne had resigned.
Isa .,.bring back memories.....always miss this team...

I love rugby at heart and I love playing the sport its so fun! go Fiji!!
Awesome Serevi!.....awesome Fiji!!!. Worthy winners indeed and the legacy continues!.
1992 Olympics in Barcelona Television was new to Fiji and I was a little boy 2 things that I remember the archer lighting the Olympic flame and all the talk surrounding the “Dream Team” this was the moment when Fiji assembles its very own Dream Team that weekend in Hong Kong there was not a single team that stood a chance against our Dream Team
2021 still watching this epic final a team with great speed n strength (New Zealand)and a team dominated by experience players n skills(Fiji)
Isa watching this again in 2020 while the world is in lock down mode.l had an old wooded bodied 23in tv and a 14in.half the kailomas in matei were on the porch and the ladies watching inside...screeming every time our boys scored😕😕
Serevi 7s Legend
simply awesome n most deserving... proud to be a fijuan
Can remember watching this at home at the time and being on feet clapping fijis 2nd and 3rd try.. Glorious.. Gutted that I was in hk in 04, fiji weren't very good and 06 when they lost in a thriller to England.. Saw them a week later in singapore hammer everyone but it wasn't the same. 7s is hk and 7s is fiji.. met serevi that weekend and he is every bit the legend off the field that he was on..
Never get old watching this
i was only 16 at that time and i cant still remember it like it all happened just yesterday! watching this game in our 14 inch TV with more than 15 people in the house! No place like Fiji! Go Fiji Go!!

This game can be simply put this way. Men vs Boys.

*I STILL CAN REMEMBER WHEN FIJIAN TEAM WAS NAMED GORDON SAID FIJI WILL BE TEAM TO BEAT*
no way, even if orene Ai'i was'nt injured, New Zealand would have still lost.

UPload fiji vs england in RWC 2005 PLEASE?!?!
This team was stacked
If fiji took the 15 game serious, there would be no stopping them
salute to u fiji team brings old memories
It was really was the stuff of LEGENDS...
Everyone's so young!!!
Man I remember feeling so happy the next day when Fiji won, so many big names in the Fijian team. This game could have gone a lot different though if Orene Ai'i wasn't out injured, he was unstoppable at the time
As serevi said all the glory to the Christ the lord

Look at that Fijian Lineup I doubt you'll see a better sevens team. Delasau, Ryder, Nanuku on the bench shows the strength the side.

the class of 1990 was better..incidently they thrashed a star studded NZ side in the final. Delasau...as good as he was was too individualistic..dancing his way through tackles and almost always spilling the ball..
I just hope that whichever players have been chosen to represent the country for the world cup in Moscow...........well good luck to you guys and hope that you will make FIJI proud by at least reach the final..........not like the 2009 world cup where you were bundled out of the quarter finals..........anyways............GOD BLESS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>I'll always be a proud FIJI rugy fan no matter the criticism.......GO FIJI GO!!!!!!!!!!
Looking for the 2005 RWC sevens semifinal fiji vs England...anybody knows where can i find it please.??!
.. FIJI'S DREAM TEAM !! ... GO FIJI GO !!
Fiji's line up is clearly way better than NZ. Those fijans have so much experience and they deserve to win that year. NZ team was too young and most players are not experienced sevens players...but great job they went to the finals anyways. Wayne Pivac was on the free ride with Fiji hahaha serevi was the coach all along and pivac didnt even say anything in their half time talks...haha

Serevi missed every tackle but thank goodness for the teams extra hard work in defense
Delasau always had trouble holding the ball
Apolosi Satala..coolest and calmest
If this game was played today there would have been so many knock ons and high tackles
chayy all da humble fijians man.classic!

The truth about this game is....this was the most unfit team in the world cup...Satala said most of the players were past their prime and injury ridden...they were written of as unfit...Satala said it was experience that got them thru.
