Fijian Drua Head Coach Glen Jackson has announced that the team will not be seeking a replacement for excommunicated centre Waqa Nalaga. Jackson expressed confidence in the existing squad, stating, “We are pretty happy with our midfield. We have enough cover there.” He highlighted the strength of their centre development and noted the significant number of players available in their Super Rugby squad. With Nalaga’s departure, the Drua will move forward without making any immediate roster changes.

This decision to rely on current players underscores the team’s belief in their depth and talent, which could foster a stronger team dynamic as they continue their season. It’s a moment that could challenge the remaining players to step up and showcase their capabilities, potentially leading to unforeseen opportunities for growth within the team.
