RUGBY UNION: REIGNING Sports Tok 7s champions, Black Orchids, have boosted their title defence with the inclusion of two debutants and one former player. Coach Tsidom Semoso upon arrival yesterday in Port Moresby said their main goal is to defend the title. The two debutants are Milton Nasei and Giobun Hakaria while the former Orchids is Jeremiah Hakaria.

“We have two new players and one former player who we brought back into the team,” said Semoso.
