The Lautoka women’s rugby side is optimistic of their chances against ANZ Marama Cup defending champions, Suva when they clash in the quarterfinals tomorrow.

Lautoka manager Liti Koroibola says the team has had inconsistent training over the past two weeks but the players have been carrying out their own individual gym sessions to prepare for playoffs.

Koroibola adds facing Suva, who are also the ANZ Bosco Trophy holders is a daunting task but Lautoka will be there to do their job and return to the Western Division with a win.
