This isn’t the best crowd in the world this is the best rugby crowd I’ve ever seen. To express that kind of excitement for a regular season game? Just awesome! That is how you live life!

[@mataiasinabitu1499]

you bet..it's the best crowd in the world..❤

[@wardchute851]

That kid in his dad's arms crying from all the noise and the excitement 😂

[@johnleo2668]

Those were tears of pure joy!

[@AMF59]

Hell yea! Good game Drua from a Samoan fan! I feel like Drua can beat anyone on home field. The crowd gives them eagle powers 😂 Taki!!!

[@mteokay1246]

taki uso !!! faafetai !!!

[@apaiatadurusolo2396]

Faatefai uso😂❤

[@maremanacharters7548]

Drua went to sleep in the second half very lucky to come away with the win. Voleka saraga na heart attack.

[@Reaper_1589x]

The way Masi manages to slice through experienced defenders time and time again is insane.

[@petermisango7675]

Very true .....Ravutamanda as well is good at the same I noticed.

[@julianmelan85]

One can easily mistake this as a World Cup match. The intensity, the atmosphere. Everything was exciting!

[@crazyrabbit4487]

Yeah man this is why I absolutely love watching the Drua home matches. With both the huge electrifying crowd and the heat/humidity they arguably have the best home field advantage in the entire comp. It's a damn shame that most of the other teams in this comp don't have awesome home atmospheres like this.

[@GRB-tj6uj]

Rember when they questioned whether a Super Rugby team in Fiji would be viable😂 one of the best atmospheres in world rugby

[@user-rm1fn8to7q]

11aaaaaaaq1ààaaa🎉 Hu Hu Hu​@@crazyrabbit4487

[@julianvels1402]

Watching from Kenya heart stopping game❤ fijian rugby is nice to watch

[@katana723]

Credit to the drua but im happy seeing the aussie sides come back like this This edmed kid is real good.

[@taleiprecious8838]

What a THRILLER!!!!!!!! I almost died!!!! Vinaka Drua!!!!!

[@jdhif]

My heart was struggling

[@IIIIIlIIl]

Fr lol Toso Drua

[@KiwiGraggle]

I think Ireland if they are supposedly the BEST side in the World at present, which I question, but as they are supposedly the best, to play 3 series against Fiji, in Fiji, haha. I would fancy Fiji to win one of those games, seriously. They are really coming up, love what they are doing and love that they are involved in Super Rugby. Same as Moana Pasifika.

[@VictorMurp]

As an irishman, its nice to even be considered one of the best in the world but we would definitely have issues in Fiji. That pacific island free run style is the complete opposite of our rigid structures and creates a nice contrast. Even right before the world cup, it was Samoa who came really close to being the ones to end our long winning streak. I dont pay that close attention to super rugby but I always keep an eye out on Drua and Pasifika. It was a great idea to include them and grow the sport further in those regions. If its a success we may not fully see the results for another 10-15 years time, just as this year's Italian team is a result of over a decade of what is now called the URC.

[@Samizouza]

Ireland almost did have a 3-game series with Fiji in Fiji back in 2021 but COVID stuffed it.

[@KiwiGraggle]

@VictorMurp Of course Ireland are a top 3 side and you know it. Awesome side, well done.

[@jimt9261]

Love watching the Fijians play, and they're getting better and better!

[@KernowekTim]

A beautiful win Drua! What a wonderful game! To coin a boring bloody phrase, "It had it all"..Fijian power is legendary, but now they have patience and iron will-to-win. They must not ease off.

[@user-tv4qq9kk8z]

Literally 3 against 1. Team, Supporters and Conditions yeah good luck respect from South Africa.

[@rajru4blkbodymore147]

U gots to tell your son “Drua was winning n u was crying your heart out”best reaction in the whole game Vinakavakalevu na wini Drua🇫🇯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@JamesWilson-ts5xk]

So tired of seeing the Waratahs losing so many close games. Good win Drua!

[@asaidweeman28]

Fijian Drua are going to shake up world rugby. Fiji could have 2 super rugby teams.

[@Samizouza]

True, if they wanted to that is

[@elizarvakabua542]

Valetini is like those guys in the movies,who wore long scarry black robe with face covered beheading the enemies perfectly with just one good swing of an axe.He has done it before and he did it again today.❤ the fijian drua.

[@JojiNamosimalua-bv8me]

On the same spot..

[@jacky9029]

What a game!! My heart, my blood pressure and my hope was all tested. Great Game!

[@nascokulasoro2986]

The Tahs coming in with a great challenge, drua just perfect in home ground

[@f1j11slander4]

That is far from a perfect Drua rugby, but a W is a W.

[@Samizouza]

​@@f1j11slander4Indeed, can't say much about the women though who got pumped like they never knew what hit them

[@edmundedmunds]

Never a dull game with the Drua at home ❤

[@CH-yp5by]

Now thats entertainment! Super Rugby is back!

[@WSolar-679VT]

What a stunner..Tahs came to play as well. Great entertaining game of rugby throughout

[@samurock100]

Drua loose forwards have not won a single ruck turnover for the past 4 games, they need to get busy with Jackal plays. Isaiah needs to have better awareness in broken play, he missed Ravutaumada twice in this game.

[@Colm-wk9zw]

Masi's been tearing it up so far straight into the Fantasy

[@rockysmickey3797]

Go on the Drua!! 🇮🇪

[@Mrunknownsounds]

One thing about the Fijians is that they never give up what a game💯

[@motodudu]

What a game 😂…all the teams know now when they go to Fiji it’s going to be the pain factory, physically and mentally. Awesome challenge, they’ll love it.

[@BigBlack81]

Fiji's gonna become the road trip that everyone fears, even the Crusaders and Hurricanes. It's NOT going to get easier because the locals will always come out for the Drua. This game had a finals feel to it just from the crowd alone.

[@inokebaravilala258]

Churchill Park is Ice Man Valetini's playground 🥶

[@kar.antares]

One can only now imagine if Masi had been given more playing time at the RWC and the former Drua - Ravouvou actually got a chance to make it out of the bench... *sigh

[@zacsufie4860]

Agreed. I was quite upset ghat he did not make the world cup. One of the most underrated players for Fiji

[@mataiasinabitu1499]

that game was epic..the crowd was electrifying...super rugby game should be this exciting..most of the stadium are empty then it was before when big teams play..thats a bummer man😢..come on super rugby , change the system n bring more games to fiji😊

[@kb8796]

I just love the way Fiji is playing well done drua

[@AgentMoray]

I like it when both teams try to win

[@Samizouza]

A stunner yet again from the Drua, but seriously they need to work on their 2nd half woes and not fall asleep everytime.

[@CODMGOOSE]

Lautoka now named House of Pain 🤟🇫🇯

[@nau5454]

Lol😂😂 House of joy & happiness

[@GoneJoka]

Pleasurable Pain

[@xDontStandInTheFirex]

First time I've ever cried from watching a Rugby game.

[@viliametiko391]

😂😂😂

[@kalavetinauakarawa8347]

Churchil Park, Lautoka. 'Victory at all cost' thanks Drua for the memories

[@max_trackz]

Was watching this game during VULI SERE for PSALM SUNDAY 🤣 Naka Drua 💙🤌💯

[@cale1981]

Great match! And I think a drawn match after 80 minutes deserves 2 points for each team. The winner in extratime should then get an extrapoint.

[@stefanocarrara7880]

Mamma mia!!! Wonderful!!! Thank you Drua, thank you Waratahs

[@JJ-li3lk]

Wow this was amazing to watch. What great atmosphere ❤

[@johncakaudrove1527]

One thing about the fijians is that they never give up but can only sleep through the game

[@lethalkiller9528]

Lomani is like the weather. We can say this is a great sunny day. (Midst of the rain 😂)

[@GeeGoodtruth]

😂😂😂 .. this was one of Lomanis best game..as a weather himself, 😂😂😂😂he must have decided to be the sun..shine out😂😂😂

[@lowdowski5337]

Great game watching as a neutral! Good for rugby

[@radahpuvaneswaran7585]

what a game ..congratulations

[@gr8gracefreight986]

It’s hard for visiting teams to win in that heat and humidity. That’s why they never wanted to play a test match in Fiji.

[@GoneJoka]

Vinaka Drua Vinaka warratahs Happy palm sunday to everybody ❤

[@MonkeyDace200]

Game of the year 🔥

[@erinquinn215]

Going to a Drua home fixture just looks like so much fun!!

[@alwynvisser6300]

Brilliant game everyone Lets keep the yellow cards away and the Fijian magic flowing❤

[@keevee09]

Great game, loving these extra time thrillers.

[@thedappercook]

Fuck I love Fijian Rugby. Glorious to watch. Effortless

[@hendersonmaster9538]

The golden boy save drua again😂

[@uraialagidamudamu7813]

Who else is watching the highlights for the 100th time to analyse their win ? 😂

[@marksheehan8026]

Looks a good game . The first drop goal should've made it, nothing hard about it all ,, well done fiji

[@5jacksonsjourney179]

What a game! Much love from 🇿🇦

[@rabbitss11]

IOSEFO MASI is a player to watch, he's scoring tries from all over the place, a thrilling win against a very good side

[@jonathanredman2153]

Masi is a superstar!!!!

[@AhTu1306]

Enjoyed the game.

[@islandvibe679]

Drua Baby ❤

[@pathfinder5651]

Masi needs to consider the supports beside him. He's awareness is very poor.

[@kvtkami9268]

Kemu “Ice Man” Valetini at it again 👏🏼

[@geghsgamer5540]

First against the crusaders on his debut last season now against the waratahas this season

[@motodudu]

Wow what a drop under that pressure 😮

[@nelsonsalesi8765]

Yeahh manh i was even out of breath...

[@machooguy484]

​@nelsonsaleszi8765 😂😂😂😂

[@exxcaliburs6002]

So good. Onya lads. From Sydney.

[@daisysuperdog2814]

What a game.

[@andreafranceschini3889]

What an exiting game!

[@naioane740]

Drua💯🤙

[@garywagner2466]

Fans got their money’s worth, even the scared kid at the end. Felt bad for that immaculate pitch that got torn up. Lovely day for it, though. Should be more matches in Fiji where the fans appreciate rugby union, unlike the toffs in the cities.

[@Fjbarnes30]

Kemu been clutch with these game winners.

[@TFARM56]

Wowwwwww Dura dura wow🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@tdtdtd1826]

I love it.well done drua

[@rico3200]

Awesome Fiji🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@NZAlex1987]

AMAZING 🔥

[@BigBlack81]

Finals feel, a tight finish, improvement by both sides. Super Rugby, how is it that you can't get Moana Pasifika in an atmosphere like this? Are you trying? Or is Fiji just different? You need to answer these questions to EVER figure out how to get fans back to the stadiums. The game deserves better. 🏉 🇫🇯

[@JT10ization]

Fijians live and breathe rugby. It's something else. Any piece of empty grass you see, there will be kids playing. Don't get me started on 7s rugby. That's a whole other level of craziness.

[@apaiatadurusolo2396]

I hope the kid is ok......man everyone here in fiji almost had a heart attack😂

[@Limpbizcut]

NA CHEER BULA I NA MAKETE IKE I RAKIRAKI. VINAKA BOYS NA QITO

[@riccardopelizza4818]

Well i need a full replay 😮

[@amigunz9164]

what a game!!!!

[@buzzlightyear9527]

Ice man Valentini made some huge blunders when he came on but his kicking boots somehow always saves the day. A thriller none the less.

[@raypurchase1239]

Cmon the Drua!!

[@chaosablesFJ]

My heart was beating after extra time 😂😂

[@wowwake-kits4660]

Wow! What a match!

[@goudatakeshi1228]

The kicker is so damn gooooooddddddd...

[@acadoe]

Damn, what a fucking game

[@cookiejah1781]

Hats of to Fiji Drua flyhalf Israel Kept his composure whole throughout..Too good..man of the match😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤

[@sideswipe1139]

Trues up! And only 19 years of age.👏👏👏👏

[@user-wy3cg8kc8u]

Uwiiiiii vnk drua....

[@RoyJones.]

Now many clubs from overseas will be keeping an eye on Iosefo Masi

[@iqr2000]

Iceman strikes again🥶

[@nz-bass-head6306]

up Fiji mahhn well deserved

[@jayhawk731]

Churchill Park is Kemu Valetini's house.

[@clementchabrolhes5641]

il y a des prolongations en super rugby?

[@skisikivou8624]

I'm hopeful to witness a Drua No:8 who could emulate the combined attributes of both Greg Alddrit and Ardie Savea. That would be awesome.

[@brass679]

the #iceman ICED the drop goal under pressure

[@raintreerefuge4679]

Congratulations boys.

[@natehill2704]

I wanna see a Super Rugby team play a MLR team

[@im-portant01...]

That'll be an unfair match-up for sure

[@Samizouza]

That won't end well even for the New England Freejacks

[@FijianFala88]

KEMU Valetini The Ice man🥶

[@hrep14]

😅😅😅 That was a close one.

[@metuselamemaofa6937]

Yesss
