Former Racing 92 winger and Beqa flyer Inia Tabuavou was overwhelmed with the experience of playing Super Rugby finalist the Hurricanes in his Super Rugby Pacific debut, and says the fast-paced game was truly a great experience.

He says it is tough, and he has to adapt to the speed of the game very quickly.

Tabuavou says he is confident he can have a smooth season going forward.

Tabuavou, who gave up his contract with a highly paid French base club, says his family and Vanua are what drives him to be the best version of himself, and he is looking forward to a good season this year.

He says he is grateful for the blessing to experience Super rugby, and playing against all these big teams is one he will enjoy while it lasts.

The Drua will face the Waratahs at 8.35pm next Friday at the Allianz Stadium.
