Fijian rugby player Moses Armstrong Ravula, a hooker for the Under-20 national team, is gearing up for a critical match against Tonga as part of the Oceania Rugby U20 Challenge. Currently competing in the Queensland Premier Cup in Brisbane, Ravula mentions that his experiences in high-level club rugby have significantly bolstered his readiness for this pivotal tournament.
Playing alongside former Super Rugby athletes and ex-Wallabies, Ravula acknowledges the competitive environment has honed his skills and mindset. “Pretty good competition… It’s pretty tough, but all that’s helping us come back and hopefully at this level, we’ll be able to play well as well,” he stated.
As he takes the field today, Ravula is expected to play a vital role in the Fijian scrum, contributing to their efforts to defend the title they won previously. The upcoming clash against a strong Tongan squad promises to be a test of both skill and physicality.
The match kicks off at 4 PM and will be broadcast live on FBC Sports. With the blend of local and overseas talent represented in the Fijian U20 team, including players from various rugby backgrounds, there is a strong sense of optimism regarding the future of Fijian rugby.
This tournament not only serves as a platform for emerging players like Ravula but also represents a significant opportunity to showcase the growth and potential of rugby in Fiji. Fans and players alike are hopeful that today’s match will set a positive tone for the rest of the championship, reinforcing the belief in the promising future of Fijian rugby on the international stage.
