Zibraaz Sahib damages knee ligaments — 73 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 73 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.

Lautoka are in among the leaders

Position 2 and 30 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

Sakaraia Naisua asks to leave Lautoka

“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.

Sairusi Nalaubu 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 Lautoka this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Real improvement from Dane Cacace at Lautoka

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Dane Cacace is 17, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

A knee injury of the worst kind for Noah Lewis

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

Team Wellington are in among the leaders

Position 1 and 30 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

A fracture rules Matt Payne out for 37 days

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

Tempers go at Team Wellington

Youssef El Omari 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.

Squad23 Aug 2027

Real improvement from Kosta Stamatelopoulos at Team Wellington

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Kosta Stamatelopoulos is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Dane Cacace leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Dane Cacace leaves Team Wellington the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.
