Tailevu will have to step up, that’s the word from the coach Lance Whippy, as the Green Machine gets ready to face Naitasiri in the Digicel Cup semi-final this year.

Whippy says the Tailevu needs to play a better than what they did when the teams met the last time.

Whippy adds it will not be an easy game.

We will have to lift our game. Naitasiri is a good team and we will be wrong in underestimating them. We have to improve.

Whippy will name his run on team tomorrow with most players having moved into camp yesterday.

Tailevu takes on Naitasiri at 3.30pm this Saturday at Ratu Cakobau Park.
