It was an emotional and proud moment for Navy Commander and Fiji Rugby Union Chairman Commodore Humphrey Tawake to witness his daughter Bitila Tawake captain the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua win the Super W competition yesterday.

Tawake who was in Australia to witness the historic occasion has told fijivillage the win was very empowering for women, girls and all communities in Fiji.

He further says the team has created a legacy of their own and have become role models across Fijian Communities.

Tawake adds he spoke to Bitila before the game.

Tawake further says it was pleasing to see the big support for the Fijiana Drua in Melbourne.

He also says they are planning to do something for the team when they return next month.
