Play Nadroga to their strengths to stand a chance of winning against them.

That is the message of Fiji Rugby Union development officer, Belasio Vukiwai ahead of the last challenge this Saturday from Nadi.

The former national and Nadi rep who played in the side from 1977 to 1991 and was also part of the team that last tasted a win in Nadroga in 1983 said it will be wise for the jet-set team to match the holders in all aspect of the game and not to play catch up rugby like Naitasiri did last Saturday.

Vukiwai said the difference in the Nadi team that beat Nadroga 27 years ago was that, it had all of the national reps in their lineup but this time around the Stallions boast a side which is now made up of national 7s and 15s s reps.

He added that Nadroga's advantage is in the depth within their squad where Coach Esala Nauga can change his side on a weekly basis but still come out on top.

The Nadroga and Nadi last BSP Farebrother Sullivan Trophy challenge kicks-off at 3pm this Saturday and you can catch a live commentary on our sister station Viti FM.
