Suva Grammar Eyes End to 21-Year Drought in Super Deans Rugby Final

Suva Grammar's Under 18 rugby team stands on the cusp of ending a 21-year wait for the coveted Vodafone Super Deans trophy. The Lions will face Lelean Memorial School in a final that captain Waisale Bolakoro describes as the culmination of years of dedication.

Bolakoro highlighted the team's extensive preparation, stating they have been building towards this moment since their early high school rugby days. He acknowledged Lelean Memorial School's hunger for the win but stressed that Suva Grammar has concentrated on refining its own game throughout the season. The anticipation within the Grammar camp is palpable, with players reportedly "hyped" for the upcoming match.

“

For Suva Grammar it will be a big thing for us to bring back the trophy, and we understand Lelean is hungry for the win aswell. We’ve all prepared well and only time will tell now.

The significance of this final extends beyond the 80 minutes of play. A generation of Suva Grammar players has not experienced the triumph of winning the Under-18 title. Bolakoro and his teammates carry the weight of this history, motivated by the opportunity to finally bring the trophy back to the school. The match is scheduled for 6:10 PM and will be broadcast live on FBC Sports.

The players are “hyped” and cannot wait to finally take the field.
