The Tailevu Rugby team will need to step up its performance against Naitasiri this Saturday if they are to win with a bonus point and qualify for the Digicel Cup semi-finals.
Coach, Lance Whippy said his boys are confident and the message has been simple - to play consistent 80 minutes rugby as Naitasiri is not an easy team to beat.
Whippy added that he will be relying on players like Nemaia Kenatale, Epeli Ruivadra, Ravai Fatiyaki and Iliesa Keresoni to stand up to the challenge.
