Fijian Drua fly-half Teti Tela has reached another milestone, becoming the first Drua player to score over 50 points in Super Rugby Pacific.

He is currently second in the overall points statistics behind Wallabies and Reds fly-half James O’Connor who has collected 63 points.

He joined the Queensland Reds in 2018.

Tela is one of the 3 players nominated for fijivillage Fan Player of the Match for Round 7 and the voting closes at 12 tonight.
