Flying Fijians join Fijian Latui in this week's Global Rapid Rugby clash.
Nicolette Chambers - Fiji Sun - 5 June 2019

Fiji Airways Flying Fijian winger Patrick Osborne and lock forward Sikeli Nabou will join the Swire Shipping Fijian Latui side when they take on Kagifa Samoa in Friday's Global Rapid Rugby clash in Auckland, New Zealand.


PS Patrick Osborne appears to be missing from the final line-up.

9. Fukafuka scores for Kagifa after a rolling maul

5 - 7 after 20 mins

Ball turned over straight away by Samoa (popped up) on their own 22, Fijians need no further invitation

5 - 14 after 21 mins

---
rolling maul from LO and Fiji over to score the 3rd try

5 - 19

---
Through the hands. Malele goes in untouched in the LHS corner

5 - 24 kick to come (just missed)

4 mins to the break

---
Kagifa lineout drive over the line ... hard to see. After the players get off the ground, ref says on-field grounding, going to TMO

Screen says NO TRY ... but ref's decision TRYYY!

12 - 24 HT

TMO to check. But it's a knock on, back to the offside penalty 5m out.

Deliberate knock down, play on - another YC?

Another penalty shot from Tikotani Malele for Latui. Successful (while 2 of theirs in the bin)

26 - 37 @ 63 mins

---
Kagifa lineout 10m out

Driving --- TRY to Kali Hala!!

31 - 37 with 3 mins to go

---
Fiji with a 5m attacking scrum ... nice kicking ahead and forced Zac into taking it back. 1min 30s to go.

Scrum reset, and it's out on the Kagifa side, they almost get a run on - Latui intercept and knock on.

---
Last throw of the dice for Samoa. They win the scrum penalty. Lineout in their own half. Another penalty...

---
Lineout on halfway. Overthrow, scrappy ball.

Ref calls no side. Deserved win to Latui.

31 - 37 FT

Some feedback from Jodi Hodgson via FaceBook:

...lucky enough to be at the game. FREEZING by Perth & Fiji standards. The town it was played in (Pukekohe) has only 20,000 - 30,000 population. Around 1,800 - 2,000 at the game at my estimate. A solid crowd of locals. Many from the local school that Jonah Lomu went to. The school provided much of the pre game entertainment - AMAZING!

It was pouring rain early in the day and rain at times during the game. So impressed with the local support & quality of the game in the wet conditions.

Entertainment included 2x haka, a Samoan dance, local chart topping rap group, fire dancers, school choir, before & after game fireworks that brought the cops out.

A rowdy crowd loved the game & cheered every tackle & try. A great first game in NZ.

The feedback was positive. A great night had by players & the Crowd.


and

Many great conversations going on around this being exactly what rugby needs.
NZ Rugby is so strong but even they are saying it needs fresh life & new ways to draw in the new generation
