A fracture rules Epeli Valevou out for 81 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Rewa will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.
Squad9 Nov 2026
19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Rewa lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

A falling-out at Rewa
Saula Waqa and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Jolame Domonikibau damages knee ligaments — 41 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 41 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.

Tempers go at Rewa
Tevita Waranaivalu 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.

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Rewa is pretending he will be back in the shirt.
Boardroom28 Sep 2026
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Delon Shankar has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

77 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Rewa lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Napolioni Bari has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

One of our own: Patrick Tuyaga joins the Rewa first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Tuyaga is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The formation has left Saula Waqa behind
Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Rewa will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

A row about effort at Rewa
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and James Pillay was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Rewa close the window on a squad of their own making
14 in and 0 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Saula Waqa 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 Rewa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Keni Cagi is no longer first choice
The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Keni Cagi has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.
The dugout7 Sep 2026
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.

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Rewa have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Rewa have let the market know Samuela Nabenia can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.
