Thank you Mr Leali'ifano for missing that kick on purpose. There was no way you could have missed from there.
He knew if Moana won there was no chance of Drua reaching the playoffs, whereas his team was never going to. He chose the alternative, and I bet his team mates were with him on missing that last conversion. So for the unsuspecting fans who didn't know..we've just been given a lifeline from Leali'ifano and his team. They just came to play rugby, and play they did.
Pacifika Island bros for life
That's the dumbest comment I've seen this year.
Good story. Keep it for grog session lol
that ball was 40 cm away from the left post, I'm pretty sure that wasn't on purpose. :)
@@alltech5675 really? 40cm ??
Amazing.
Watch how he kicked against Waratahs over the weekend. He is a precise kicker..wasn't even under pressure in Fiji. He just chose to miss
@@krishneelkumar4361 why grog? Do you think we all drink grog?
Moana exposed alot of weaknesses in the Drua team but when Moana play in Fiji they playing in their home ground as well Moana and Fiji we are Ohana
Fiji have a lot of weaknesses in their gameplan pretty much all the fundamentals, it’s when they’re on the offensive they are hard to stop.
Sentiments aside. This is competitive rugby, professional level. Drua has to work on its defence structures.
What an entertaining match that was. Greetings to both teams from Germany
Gutted for Leali'ifano for missing that kick at the end. Fantastic player
He choked
He is a great leader
💯
I think Christian gifted the win.
@@billymack333 who told you? he missed the kick period 😁😁
Moana, always supporting you no matter what! You have showed consistently that you can stay in the fight. Once you find your rhythm in winning, you will be unstoppable. Top three in SRP on maul = try….massive strength.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Christian, I feel for you brother, but I’m thankful it’s kept a Pacific in the race for the final 8.
Great game to both teams
Thanks Christian, I know you meant to miss the kick
Great battle between our two Pasifika brothers ❤🎉 What an exciting game to watch!!!!
Brilliant match, much credit to both teams for asking and answering every question they could put. The crowd told you everything you wanted to hear. 🏉🏉🌴🌴
Lealifano gifted that win to the Drua and said hope you do well my Pacific Island brothers.
Lol yea he did 🤣🤣
I know Moana 10 wanted to give his Fijian brothers a shot at the playoffs 😆
Agree with u Bro😆
Sa dina! Christian knew that his team would spoil Drua's chances of making the playoffs if they won. He knew his team was out but thot of big picture and let Drua win. I hope Drua makes the playoffs after this gift by Moana 😅
Everyone in the comments section is nuts today. Any athlete, especially a professional athlete, does everything in their power to win. Sometimes they fail, but it's not out of generous spirit. You don't think MP want to avoid a winless season?!
@tpac83 they just lost their coach and their home crowds are no longer supportive but obviously your point of view is the correct one because it tells me you don't know much about island brothers
This match was a pure spectacle. Defense coach’s nightmare, but an absolute treat to watch.
Entertainment value 10/10.
Comes to show what a shrewd move was the inclusion of the PI teams.
what PI team? The Drua is a Viti based team, players picked from the Skipper Cup, trained & developed. Moana is a NZ team. Get your facts right.
@@NasinuWarrior85 What PI teams? Drua and Moana. Populated by Pacific Islanders, intended to be topl level development for Fiji (Drua), and Samoa & Tonga.
Arctic fox shits on where they’re registered, Mr. Pedantic. Somehow everyone besides you seems to understand what PI teams refer to.
So much talent in the Fijian Drua squad. I sincerely hope this translates into better performances at Test level
It has shown that in the Pacific Nations Cup last year, made the Europe based boys look poor for lack of time and cohesion together.
Same. Still lots to work on. Hopefully in the next RWC (not this year's one), Fiji will push for their first semi final appearance.
They could make the quarterfinal this year but the top 5 teams would put them away easy.
@@whitefire06 Quarterfinals is the original target, still an achievement in itself even if they unsurprisingly don't make the semifinals
@@Samizouza Yeah for sure! Making the quarter finals this RWC will be huge!
However, they have achieved it before and they have been a fringe top 8 side for a long time. With recently underwhelming Australia and Wales as the "top teams" in their pool, it is definitely on the cards again.
Great game drua 💯 love from 🇼🇸
Happy for Drua that they are still alive but gutted for Moana so close to picking up their first win
Love the rebellious guys at the start leaning on the fence next to the ‘Don’t lean on the fence’ sign 😂
Lots of fun when teams can’t be bothered with defence. Beautiful day for a rugby match.
I started watching Super Rugby about 10 years ago with my other international mates, most of them from the southern hemi like NZ, AUS, and RSA. I liked watching the competitive play, but couldn't really pick a team to support because I was so split between all my friends' favorites. Since these two new teams joined, I've been so excited to claim I support them (especially Moana Pasifika); both are exciting to watch!! I hope I can go cheer for Moana Pasifika in person some day and they will win the match 🙂
Both teams are playing their home game here. Pacifika, we are one. Well done both for the great performance and hard work. It was very unfortunate for Moana with the last kick. Good game.
Wow what a game! heartbreaking for Moana P, intense stuff
I'm Fijian but I have to put my hands up for Moana pcifika for bringing the game to our turf. Respect to Moana. Don't count them out yet. All the very best for the next season. Toso drua, toso Moana
I'm Fijian but am not gonna lie. Moana scores more constructive tries.
Dina my brother, my exact words!! Moana played a well mannered structured game while the Drua was just everywhere. Luckily it was by the Moana's mistakes that gifted the Drua mot of the tries
The best super rugby commentator- hands down
Now they have to win with a bonus point against the Reds next week and hope the Blues and Chiefs do them a favor beating the Highlanders and Force respectively.
Thanks to both teams.... vinka Drua
Christian Leali'ifano knew what he was doing. Vinaka my brother, Fiji appreciates what you did 💯
Superb advert for Super Rugby, even rugby as a whole. Fantastic pace, skill and perseverance from Moana to come back and almost snatch it. Amazing.
Both the home team✊ great game the pacifica brothers ❤
Good game Moana.. played a more structured game and exposed Drua’s shortfall despite the lose
Shocking defence
It sure was.
Wish I had seen it live - what a game!
Drua didn’t really take Moana seriously and nearly paid for it..
What a game!
Unlucky Moana!! ...an entertaining game from both sides.
Drua played a chaotic game which works for them....Moana playing a more structured game but that last kick is gonna go really hard on Leleiafano.
What a game 🔥🔥🔥
what a shame the final kick but damn that was a real running feast of rugby tries.
i dunno why but i felt he intended to miss it because even if they won,they are still bottom but if the drua won,at least their pacific brothers might get into the final 8
Congratulations both team! Mona could have win with that conversation.
That was a close one Leliafano flinched that last kick
When Drua plays Moana...defence is not included in the game plan..😂
Well done of both team ✌🇳🇿
Smashing game,very entertaining.
Vnk ruarua.
Great game by the drua.
Really happy for aumua getting the crusaders call up FINALLY! They will be able to teach him how to tackle and become a better player. He’s the big powerful battering ram the all blacks desperately need in the midfield
Good game Drua. ❤
Great, close contest between the island entertainers
Drua is so strong 💪
Fiji should be also moanas home ground.good performance from both team
Sentiments aside. This is competitive rugby, professional level. Drua has to work on its defence structures.
As expected. 2 teams with the same play style unstructured vs unstructured
Good to watch entertaining
Still pretty disappointing they had the bonus point win and then poor scrummaging from the reserve props brought the Moana back in to it.
Ah well....didn't want either to loose, so I guess thats not bad.
Great heart from Moana. 13th ish lost in a row but still keep playing with their head held high, that’s hard to do.
Drua, dou bau vakayagataka mada nomudou mona!!! Sa voleka la na half time dou caqe yani i matamata!! Karua ni ka, sa sivia na kavetani ena timi qo! E dua ga e vakatulewa.
Good game drua hope to have a good game with the reds
Waisouuu
Moana 😢
Great game of rugby. Moana's last minute conversion miss could have sealed the game for them.
The defence was non existent in this game
Truez up.
Poor defence by both teams. Drua needs to defend a rolling maul
What a game 😂😂
lautoka try fest!
HOW was that DRAUA'S First try.......!
Both home teams
That one had to sting.
Moana deliberatly missed that kick... thanks buddy we owe you one ..pacific brothers!!✊🏾
That is 100% untrue
@@tpac83 wow thats great...awesome
Kua ni trip jikho! This is competitive rugby, professional level. Drua has to work on its defence structures.
@@NasinuWarrior85 relax mana...dont get offended by a random strangers opinion....set iko se wara?
@@notking6149 set ika qoi, qori? Drua needs to stop underestimating behind-on-the-Table teams. So we can not lose the game against the likes of them. Why? We're trying to reach top 4. Moana has not won a single game the whole 2023 season. And to win against us when we desperately need it. That would end the season on a morale-shaker for Drua. We could lose investor/sponsor confidence and the fans too. If there was a Tier 2 comp, Moana would've been relegated. So I got myself together, before & after this thread of posts with you. Kari, vakia jikho?
3:00 this try
Toso drua Toso
Masi ahead of Radrada for the RWC?
Nevermind Moana 🙊🙊🙊🙊.. ia o laia i le fale 🙈
Drua goal kicking has really been a great feature in this comp and should be good for the flying fijians going into the world cup
That bonus point miss is a big miss for drua... now have to beat reds with bonus point..... did kicker meant to miss.... vinaka drua
Oh no Pollard missed the winning penalty 😅
Ça attaque bien, mais ça défend mal
Moana has to be one of the most unlunky team this season 😢
Gutting for Moana, probz their best game of the season and they scoff it at the end.. Ooh boy the trip to Sydney for the final game v Tahs will be grim😬
Last game vs Reds in Suva
Hopefully MP can win it for Mauger next week in Sydney with pride
@@WillisVave srry, meant the other team
Where’s the defense
For a world class rugby player like Leali’ifano that’s a no Miss for sure at that type of penalty .. I Bett he gave that Game to Drua for them to carry on The Beacon of Hope to All our Pacific Nations Islands .. From a Fijian Die Hard Fan Vinaka Moana
No, he missed after running around for 80 minutes. Simple as that
Missing conversions too much pressure but what a way to fumble the game...
I think he meant to miss the final kick because if he got it on target then moana pasifika would have ruined their pacific brother fiji druas chances at making the final 8 playoffs
how can a team that has not won a single match in the comp deliverately miss a penalty? he choked big time....😁😁😁
Toso viti
Fiji win
Moana won that game ggs
When is this Moana team gonna win a match?
Man I really feel for Moana, that was their one and only chance to finally get a moral boosting win. Really really guttered for them
4-0 sotava tuga
Fijiandrua they beat Moana pasifika 47 - 46
Moana losing has become ingrained, u doing it on purpose.
Rugby journalist Chris Reason:
"Super Rugby is so boring in 2023!"
Super Rugby:
Kick moana out of the comp. Complete bums lets be honest
Leave our Pacific Brothers Alone.
Vinaka Moana Good Game✊🏽🇫🇯
😂😂😂😂
