From , 3:03 pm on 21 September 2017

A host of rugby greats will dust off their boots this weekend when the Fiji Legends face off against the Classic Wallabies in a sevens exhibition match in Suva.

The game will serve as the curtain raiser for the Fijian Drua's Australian National Rugby Championship clash against defending champions Perth Spirit.

Waisale Serevi will captain the Fiji Legends side, which also includes Rupeni Caucaunibuca, while Lote Tuqiri and Radike Samoa headline the Classic Wallabies team.

Tuqiri retired from professional sport in 2014 but told Vinnie Wylie he's looking forward to having a run around.
