Defending Champions of the Digicel cup competition, Naitasiri made a perfect start to the season beating Nadroga, 23-15 last night.

Naitasiri looked sharper and focused in their approach and applied pressure from the first whistle.

The Highlanders were awarded a penalty try in the match due to continuing fouls by Nadroga defense.

Kolinio Vunaki kicked three more penalties for Naitasiri.

As for Nadroga, a lot will needs to be done as the team also was lacked depth in the team with some senior reps missing from the outfit.

Meanwhile, at 3pm today Rewa will play Lautoka, Navosa takes on Northland, Ovalau meets Macuata, Tailevu hosts Nadi and Suva plays Tavua.
