Suva Women demonstrated their dominance in the Marama Cup with an impressive 64-10 victory over Naitasiri at the Naluwai grounds during their round eight matchup. From the outset, Suva seized control of the game, effectively exploiting Naitasiri’s early errors to score quickly and pull ahead.
Their organized gameplay and disciplined strategy allowed them to maintain possession and dictate the game’s tempo. Despite the vocal support from their home crowd, Naitasiri struggled to mount a counterattack, spending much of the match on defense. A number of defensive lapses left them exposed, allowing Suva’s powerful forwards to create numerous scoring opportunities for their backs.
Suva’s clear superiority was evident as they consistently found the try line, reinforcing their status as a top contender in the league. This victory not only underscores their recent accomplishments but also provides a significant confidence boost as they prepare for future matches.
On the other hand, Naitasiri continues to face challenges in achieving consistent performances. Earlier in the season, Suva’s women’s team also made headlines by successfully defending the Pio Bosco Trophy with a solid 43-26 win over Lautoka, showcasing the depth of their talent. Additionally, Suva’s U20 team has been performing strongly as well, having defeated Lautoka 32-8, further illustrating the club’s strength across various levels.
The evolving landscape of Suva’s rugby program offers optimism for fans who eagerly anticipate upcoming competitions. The team’s recent achievements not only reflect a strong competitive spirit but also highlight a well-rounded depth of talent that bodes well for the future of women’s rugby in Suva and throughout Fiji.
