Suva Rugby Coach Sakaraia Labalaba says they will not let their winning streak this season dictate the results of the final of the Skipper Cup.

Speaking to players in a team briefing, Labalaba says they understand the last time they met Naitasiri, they lost 27-10, but that was a different arena and this week is the final and players will need to give their all.

He adds players discipline is critical and one wrong move can cost them the trophy.

Chairman LT. Col. Aseri Rokoura says the only thing they want from their players is to give their best this week and make their family proud for all the sacrifices they have done.

Suva is aiming for their third consecutive title while Naitasiri will play in their second Skipper Cup final since losing to Nadroga in 2014.

Suva will face Naitasiri this Saturday at the ANZ Stadium.
