The Suva 15's rugby team is out to break a 20 year losing drought at Prince Charles when they take on Nadi for the Farebrother Sullivan trophy challenge today.
The Capital City last won in Nadi in 1988 where players like Esala Teleni, Mosese Taga, Tom Mitchell and Usa Daunivalu were part of that team that lifted the Farebrother trophy.
Now the Kalisito Tunaulu coached side is relying on a young side to try and bring back the memories enjoyed by the side 20 years ago against a Nadi side which at the moment has all the rugby titles in the country.
Suva's technical adviser Etonia Radrodro said his boys want to prove today that Nadi can be beaten at home.
Meanwhile, Nadi coach Iliesa Tanivula has lifted his side's preparation knowing that they will miss the services of tight-head prop Ravuama Samo this afternoon.
Nadi will take on Suva at 3pm at Prince Charles Park. You can catch the live commentary of the match on our sister station Viti-Fm.
