99 Edition

Squad

Matt McCowatt damages knee ligaments — 99 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 99 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.

Match

Rewa through in the cup

A 1‑0 win over Navua, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings

Noah Just could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.44

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.44, 0 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Player ratings

A defender's afternoon for Abdurahmon Sulaymonov

Defensive actions: 25. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Match

Whatever happens, Rewa do not lose

7 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad

Patrick Joseph 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.

Boardroom

The numbers do not look good at Rewa

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.

Squad

Words at Rewa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Bill Rufer 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Noah Just

At 19 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.

Match

Rewa are in among the leaders

Position 2 and 34 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

Squad

Tempers go at Rewa

Patrick Joseph 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.

Squad

Words at Rewa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Iosefo Verevou 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.

Market

Rewa sign Noah Just, one for the future

Noah Just is 19, and Rewa have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

Squad

When it matters, Iosefo Verevou 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.

Squad

Setareki Hughes has company in his position

The competition arrived without a word said to him about it. Setareki Hughes keeps the shirt for now, at Rewa's convenience rather than his own.
