Naitasiri rugby coach, Koli Sewabu has commended the Nadroga side to select his team as the first challengers of the HFC Bank Farebrother Trophy.

Sewabu says, he has always wanted to play the Stallions after the near loss in the Skipper Cup competition, and a cracker of a match can be expected this weekend.

“We go into this Saturday’s match as underdogs. Nothing changes for us. We know there is a lot of expectations from the fans and Vanua. We do know that Nadroga chose to play us first and that means a lot. They would have thought a lot before deciding that and it will be a good match this Saturday.”
