The West rugby team will be hoping to maintain their winning form and beat the East team in this afternoon’s AON Rugby Challenge.

After winning the second leg last week the West team are on a high and will be looking to stamp their mark as the first title holders.

West will be boosted with the services of star players like captain Setefano Somoca, Kelepi Ketedromo, Jiuta Lutumailagi, Rupeni Nasiga and Asaeli Boko.

Meanwhile, the East rugby side have to beat West today by 14 points to win the AON rugby challenge.

The first match two weeks ago ended in a 22 all draw but last week the West side beat East by 35-21 so the Eastern team have to beat West by 14 points.

If East wins by less than 14 points then the Rupeni Nasiga captained West side will claim the title.

The final challenge will be held at the ANZ Stadium today at 4pm and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station VITI FM.
