In the top try scoring stakes after week two, fleet-footed Eels winger Duane Gukisuva leads the bunch with six tries.
National sevens rep Gukisuva has been in fine of late for the table-topping Eels sevens team who have won the last two weekends of rugby sevens.
He is closely followed by 19-year-old Cowboys flyer Sema Robati with five tries, then Conrad Piri (Panthers) and Bruce Goldsworthy (Eels) with four tries each. Then a group of players on three tries – George Turaki (Reds), Caleb Tatuava (Panthers) and Clive Nicholas (Eels). All players have been leading-lights for their respective teams even the past two weeks have been played on wet and muddy feilds.
