Rabitu earns Flying Fijians call-up

Former Suva Grammar School Under-18 standout and Fijian Drua utility back Isikeli Rabitu has been named in the Flying Fijians travelling squad for the Nations Championship.

Rabitu comes into the squad as cover for Racing 92 winger Vinaya Habosi, who has withdrawn due to injury, opening the door for the young back to join the national setup.

The versatile back has already built strong experience at senior level, featuring in seven matches for Fiji U20 at the World Rugby U20 Championship and playing 12 matches for the Fijian Drua in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific 2025–2026 season, where he scored three tries and 15 points.

Rabitu rose through the ranks from Suva Grammar School U18 and the Fiji U20 pathway before joining the Drua in 2023, continuing his progression through Fiji’s high-performance rugby system.
