The presence of former National reps to assist head coach Esala Nauga in preparing for the defense of the BSP Farebrother Sullivan trophy will always give the Stallions an edge against any challenging team.

Fiji Rugby Union development official and analysist, Oscar Umuumulovo said Nadroga is blessed to have former players who have won the Farebrother in the past to be part of their coaching panel as they know what it takes to be in the winning team.

He believes the presence of former players like Jonetani Waqa, Samu Vunaki, Kini Malai and Ifereimi Tawake in the Nadroga camp will mean Lautoka have a steep hill to climb in trying to wrestle the Farebrother on Saturday.

Umuumulovo added that to defeat this current Nadroga team will take a good side that can match them mentally, physically and play with the intention to win from kick-off until the final minutes of the game.
