To have one of our own coming back home is going to be a great moment for all of us, but we still have a game of rugby to play.

Former Flying Fijian and Drua Development Coach, Nemani Nadolo highlighted this in regards to former Flying Fijians flyhalf Ben Volavola, who is looking to make his debut for the Reds from the bench tomorrow.


Nadolo says it is good to see him back on the Super Rugby scene, and he will try to catch up with Volavola, who is also his son's godfather, hopefully before or after the game.

Drua prop, Peni Ravai says he has played with Volavola in different clubs, from the Sydney Rams in Sydney, Bordeaux in France, as well as the Flying Fijians, debuting together in 2012.


Former Flying Fijian and Drua flyhalf, Teti Tela, was pictured with Seru Uru, Volavola and Filipo Daugunu when they flew in last night.

The Drua play the Reds 3.35pm tomorrow at The Fortress in Lautoka.

In other games, the Highlanders will meet the Hurricanes at 6.05 tonight, and the Brumbies will face the Chiefs at 8.35pm.

Tomorrow, Moana Pasifika host the Crusdaders at 6.05pm, while the Waratahs play the Blues at 8.35pm.
