Naitasiri prop Vesi Rarawa was the toast of the highlanders camp after he crossed the line, ten minutes from full time to seal their 20-16 win against Suva at Ratu Cakobau Park yesterday.

Suva was leading by 16-13 and the echoes of "Go Black Go" from the grandstand inspired the Naitasiri boys to score a try, to determine a spot in the finals in a fortnight's time.

Naitasiri coach Reverend Joji Rinakama also shared a few thoughts with the boys at halftime, stressing to them that a win was what they were there for and nothing less, and for the boys not to put to waste all the hard work that they had been doing throughout the season.

Naitasiri will now await the match between Nadroga and Lautoka, next week Saturday at Lawaqa Park in Sigatoka, and the winner will meet Naitasiri in the final of the Digicel Cup in August 22nd.
