Suva Women showcased their prowess in a decisive 64-10 victory over Naitasiri at the Naluwai grounds during their round eight Marama Cup matchup. From the beginning, Suva took control of the game, capitalizing on Naitasiri’s early mistakes to score swiftly.
Their well-organized gameplay and disciplined approach allowed them to dominate possession and manage the pace of the match effectively. Despite the encouragement from their home supporters, Naitasiri was unable to counter Suva’s persistent offensive, spending much of the game on the defensive. A series of lapses in defense left Naitasiri vulnerable, as Suva’s formidable forwards set the stage for their backs to execute a flurry of scoring opportunities.
The dominant performance of Suva was unmistakable as they consistently added tries throughout the contest, solidifying their reputation as a leading team in the competition. This win highlights not only their recent successes but also marks a confidence boost for Suva as they look towards their upcoming matches, positioning them as strong contenders in the league.
Naitasiri’s struggles continue as they seek to establish consistency in their performances. Earlier in the season, Suva’s women also made headlines by defending the Pio Bosco Trophy with a robust 43-26 win over Lautoka, emphasizing the breadth of their talent. Moreover, Suva’s U20 team has been performing well, defeating Lautoka 32-8 and further demonstrating the club’s comprehensive strength across all levels.
The trajectory of Suva’s rugby program paints a promising picture for fans as they eagerly anticipate future competitions. The club’s recent form reflects not just their competitive spirit but also a well-rounded depth of talent that is supporting a hopeful future for women’s rugby in Suva and Fiji as a whole.
