Outgoing Nadroga head-coach Reverend Joji Rinakama said though they lost out to Nadi by a narrow two points in yesterday's Digicel Cup final, he leaves the province a happy man as he has achieved his goal.

Rinakama feels that for the past ten years, he has lifted the standard of rugby in both Nadroga and Navosa, and has even succeeded in moulding the development of young rugby players in the area.

Rinakama added that it was an achievement to reach the finals in the competition, however, he strongly feels that things will not always go their way all the time.

The Naitasiri native even stated that Nadroga will always have a special place in his heart, though he will be leaving them at the end of the year.

Whatever is ahead of him and his plans for rugby is anyone's guess!
