Following a recent Super Rugby Pacific match against the Hurricanes, Ravula’s remarkable performance has catapulted him to second place on the club’s all-time points list, amassing a total of 120 points and trailing just four points behind former fly-half Teti Tela, who holds the top spot at 124 points.

Just to be part of this special club is an honor and privilege,” he stated. His deep passion for rugby and appreciation for the opportunities he’s had highlight his commitment to making a meaningful impact within the team.
In his latest matchup against the Hurricanes, Ravula showcased his talent by scoring 13 points, which included his first Super Rugby try, two successful penalty kicks, and four conversions.
