Tailevu Knights in a must win situation

The Tailevu Knights must win today's match against the unbeaten Coastal Stallions side to have any chances of making the semifinal stages in the Colonial Cup competition.

Coach Etuate Waqa is confident of a victory at home but said everything lies in the hands of the players and how they perform on the field.

Waqa has named a strong side for the match and said if his backline players click on time then the Stallions might suffer their first defeat this afternoon.

The Tailevu Knights lost their opening match to the Crusaders in the first round but bounced back in the second round to beat the Sharks 13-8.

This match will kickoff at 3pm at Nasau Park in Levuka. The other Colonial Cup match will see the Bligh Roosters take on the Suva Highlanders at Garvey Park 3pm.

Meanwhile, in the only Colonial Cup match played last night the Northern Sharks upset the Western Crusaders by 37 points to 25.
