The Suva Rugby side has been boosted with the inclusion of Flying Fijians prop Kalivati Tawake and utility back John Stewart as they prepare for the HFC Farebrother challenge against Nadroga.

Suva coach Saiasi Fuli says the presence of the national reps will motivate the young players as they gear up for the important match ahead.

“We have a squad that is injury free and hopefully players coming back from national duties like Kali and Stewart and they contribute positively to the team.”
