The Bua rugby team’s campaign for a spot in next year’s Skipper Fiji Rugby Championship competition is on track.
This was after Bua edged Serua 12-10 in the quarterfinal of the Vodafone Vanua Championship at Subrail Park, Labasa, on Saturday.
The star of Bua’s win was lock forward Nemani Biu who scored two tries. Biu on several occasions used his raw strength, speed and leg drive to break through the Serua defence to the delight of the Bua fans.
In one of his powerful drives he managed to crash over for his first try while Serua’s points came from a penalty as they trailed 5-3 at halftime.
