Injury Report: Nasilasila suffered a four-week absence due to an ankle injury.
For three to four weeks, Swire Shipping Fijian Drua lock Isoa Nasilasila will not be available. The man known as “Ice,” according to head coach Mick Byrne, hurt his ankle. According to Byrne, they will keep an eye on Nasilasila’s recovery going forward.
The Drua player with the most minutes played since joining the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific three years ago is Nasilasila. The Viseisei peasant from Vuda participated in every Flying Fijians game the previous season.
The good news for the Drua is that Taniela Rakuro and Ilaisa Droasese performed well in today’s intense session in the intense heat of Nadi. The Drua take on the Crusaders on Saturday at 1:05 p.m. at Lautoka’s Churchill Park.
