It is the case of a master playing against his best student and on Saturday in the Digicel Cup final Nadroga coach Esala Nauga is out to prove he is the best in the country.

Nauga worked as Reverand Joji Rinakama's assistant when he was the Nadroga coach and last year was his first season as head coach where he won both the Digicel Cup and the Farebrother from Naitasiri under the leadership of Rinakama in his first term with his own province.

Nadroga has met Naitasiri on 4 occasions since Rinakama left the Stallions but he has failed to win in the games that mattered like the Digicel Cup semifinal and the Farebrother challenge.

Nadroga Captain Tiko Matawalu said the players will put their bodies on the line to defend their title on Saturday and also win the game for their coach.
