The Kaiviti Silktails captain Penioni Tagituimua and Vuate Karawalevu have returned to the team’s camp.

The duo are going to spearhad their campaign in the Ron Massey Cup clash against Windsor Wolves at the Mascot Oval in Sydney, Australia, on Saturday.

This was confirmed to SUNsports yesterday by Silktails head coach Wes Naiqama.

Tagituimua had played for North Sydney Bears in the last two rounds of the New South Wales Cup competition while Karawalevu represented Sydney Roosters Under-21 side in the Jersey Flegg competition.

The rookie winger scored seven tries in his three games for the Roosters.

Naiqama said the duo’s experience in playing in higher competitions could come in handy as they are gunning for another win.

“The return of these two players will really boost our performance this weekend,” Naiqama said.

“This will see the return of our leader Peni who will lead the team out at home.”

“Both Karawalevu and Tagituimua will add speed in the backs which is a good thing for us.

“Vuate has been playing very well for the Roosters U21 side and has scored seven tries for his club.”

“This weekend he will be in action for us and we hope that he will continue scoring tries for us.”

“Their inclusion against the Wolves will help us in our goals of finishing at the top three in the Ron Massey Cup.”

The match kicks off at 5pm.
