Squad7 Sep 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Nasoni Mereke

113 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Nasinu lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Jone Naraba breaks a bone — 92 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 92 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market7 Sep 2026

Ryan Chandra hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Nasinu can pretend not to have heard.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Nasinu count the cost of losing Isikeli Tovilo

32 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Jone Naraba in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nasinu this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market7 Sep 2026

Nasinu borrow Sumeet Goundar

A season-long look at somebody else’s player: Sumeet Goundar arrives from Ba with something to prove and a return ticket in the drawer. Good loans make everybody richer; this one starts Saturday.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Nasoni Mereke damages knee ligaments — 135 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 135 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Jone Naraba breaks a bone — 113 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 113 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match12 Aug 2026

Cup progress for Nasinu

A 2‑0 win over Tailevu Naitasiri, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Market17 Aug 2026

Newton Tabe attracts admirers

The name of Newton Tabe has come up in conversations Nasinu were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Jonetani Buksh in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nasinu this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Ryan Chandra

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

One of those days for Ryan Chandra

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.49, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Iliesa Rakuka in the eights

A performance of 8.01 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Elvis Raju shuts the door

Defensive actions: 18, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.
