The Fijian Drua rugby team will not be seeking a replacement for excommunicated center Waqa Nalaga, according to Head Coach Glen Jackson. He stated that the team is satisfied with the current midfield options and has sufficient depth within the squad to navigate the situation.
Jackson expressed confidence in the development of the team’s centers, highlighting that the Drua has a robust lineup even after Nalaga’s departure. He noted that the team has a considerable number of players within their Super Rugby squads, allowing them to adapt without the need for an immediate replacement for Nalaga.
Nalaga’s release from the Drua took place earlier this week, marking a significant change for the team.
This decision not to replace Nalaga may indicate the Drua’s strong internal development and belief in their current squad’s capabilities. It reflects a strategic focus on nurturing homegrown talent, which could bode well for the team’s future performance.
