Marked for Ashneel Kumar

Market26 Jul 2027

Terms done: Ratu Halstead is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Nasinu waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Nadi is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Squad26 Jul 2027

Ashneel Kumar breaks a bone — 53 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 53 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

The dugout26 Jul 2027

Ratu Halstead frozen out at Nadi

This is not rotation. Ratu Halstead has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Nadi is pretending otherwise.

Squad26 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Nadi

Rocky Junior and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout26 Jul 2027

No hiding place for Eneriko Matau

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Eneriko Matau, and the manager let it.

Squad26 Jul 2027

Words at Nadi training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Milai Perrot 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 dugout26 Jul 2027

Eneriko Matau gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Eneriko Matau is on it.

The dugout26 Jul 2027

Elvis Raju is still paying for one afternoon at Nadi

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Market26 Jul 2027

The Tuiba Batiratu question follows Nadi around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Tuiba Batiratu’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market7 Jun 2027

Nikesh Singh asks to leave Nadi

“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.

Match5 Jun 2027

After 10 games, Nadi finally taste it again

The first defeat in 10 matches. The manager will say it had to come; the dressing room will say it did not have to come against Tailevu Naitasiri; the supporters will say both, in that order, all week.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Nadi count the cost of losing Beniamino Lebatavatava

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

Squad7 Jun 2027

Eneriko Matau 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 Nadi this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings7 Jun 2027

Eneriko Matau was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 21. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market7 Jun 2027

Navua join the queue for Jonasa Ravukitiliva

Add another name to the list: Navua have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Jonasa Ravukitiliva. The answer from Nadi has not changed — yet.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Pauliasi Tulivou signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pauliasi Tulivou commits to Nadi for another 4 years.

Transfer targets7 Jun 2027

Door shut on Senirusi Bokini

Nadi asked and Lautoka said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match5 Jun 2027

Tailevu Naitasiri take the points off Nadi

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

In brief
