Match31 Jul 2028

Labasa are in real trouble now

Position 10, 15 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Boardroom31 Jul 2028

The scrutiny sharpens at Labasa

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Labasa is running low.

The terraces31 Jul 2028

The mood at Labasa has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Squad31 Jul 2028

A fracture rules Keni Cagi out for 76 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Labasa will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Boardroom31 Jul 2028

The numbers do not look good at Labasa

Wages have outrun income and the accountants have started attending meetings they used to send apologies to. Ambition comes second in a season like this.

Market31 Jul 2028

Sailimone Ravonokula puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Labasa, and it is not being withdrawn.

A fracture rules Christopher Wasasala out for 57 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Labasa will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Boardroom22 Nov 2027

Pressure builds in the Labasa boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Market22 Nov 2027

Jimson Abana 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 Labasa can pretend not to have heard.

Squad22 Nov 2027

Ilaisa Vulimainavuso falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad22 Nov 2027

Tempers go at Labasa

Sekove Naivakananumi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Loan watch22 Nov 2027

Simione Qaraniqio has seen enough of Suva

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Labasa, and 0 appearances in 21 say he has earned the hearing.

A fracture rules Iliesa Lino out for 55 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Labasa will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Akeimi Ralulu 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 Labasa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad1 Mar 2027

When it matters, Joji Vuakaca plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Words at Labasa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Joji Vuakaca is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
