Tailevu rugby team manager Lepani Matea says the team understands they will be facing one of their biggest challenges this season when they take on Nadroga in the Skipper Cup Competition this Saturday.

He adds the players have been briefed on what to expect this week, and they are ready to face Nadroga.

Tailevu will take on Nadroga at 3pm at Ratu Cakobau Park.

The Skipper Cup and Farebrother Sullivan Trophy Challenge between Namosi and Naitasiri will be held at Thompson Park at 3.30pm this Saturday.

In other matches, Yasawa will face Lautoka at Prince Charles Park at 5pm this Friday while Nadi will play Suva at 3pm at Prince Charles Park this Saturday.
