Naitasiri will not take Nadroga lightly in the Skipper Cup semifinal- Tuisese

Naitasiri will not be taking Nadroga lightly this week as they know that Nadroga is always in a different state when it comes to the knockout stages.

Naitasiri won both matches against Nadroga this season, defeating them 9-6 in Round 4 and 13-6 in Round 11.

Naitasiri head coach Dr Ilaitia Tuisese says they never underestimate Nadroga especially when it comes to the knockout stages, as we all know that Nadroga are rugby champions and whenever they reach the knockout stages, they are in a different state.

Tuisese says they have been working on their discipline as it will be a crucial and one wrong move can cost them the game.

He says there is nothing more they can do but to fine-tune their game plan into perfection.

He adds they will need to polish up their game strategy and execute it well on game day.

Naitasiri sits in second place with 10 wins and 4 loss totalling 46 points while Nadroga is in third place with 9 wins, 5 loss, and a total of 45 points.

Naitasiri will meet Nadroga at 3pm tomorrow at Ratu Cakobau Park and Suva will face Namosi at 3pm tomorrow at the ANZ Stadium.
