Former Lelean Memorial School student Suliasi Vunivalu who is part of the Auckland Blues Under 18 side believes the rugby competition in Fiji needs more structure.

Speaking from Saint Kentigern College in New Zealand Vunivalu said the Secondary Schools rugby players in Fiji do not have enough game time when they make the national Under 20 side.

Vunivalu added he is aiming for a super rugby contract.

The 18-year-old played for Lelean in the Under 15 and 16 grades in 2010 and 2011 respectively.

Last week Vunivalu featured prominently for the Blues Under 18 as they defeated the Chiefs Under 18 side 13-7.

Vunivalu has picked Queen Victoria School to retain the Deans title.

Meanwhile, the Coke Zero Deans Tier One semifinals will be held at Prince Charles Park this Saturday.
