Goal Rush: Who Will Claim the Golden Boot in Fiji’s Premier League?

Merrill Nand of Suva is currently leading the Golden Boot standings in the Digicel Fiji Premier League, having scored 10 goals in 14 rounds of play. He is closely followed by Sairusi Nalaubu, a four-time winner from Lautoka, and seasoned Labasa forward Christopher Wasasala, both of whom have tallied 8 goals. Just behind them are Rusiate Matarerega from Nadroga, Ali Mekawir of Navua, and Iosefo Verevou from Rewa, all with 7 goals. Tevita Waranaivalu from Rewa and Etonia Dogalau of Ba have scored 6 goals each. Nand, Wasasala, and Mekawir will have another opportunity to add to their goal count this weekend. Sunday’s matches include Tailevu Naitasiri taking on Nasinu at 1 PM, Navua going up against Suva at 3 PM, and Nadi squaring off with Labasa at Prince Charles Park around the same time.
