Fijian Drua centre Josivini Naihamu is hopeful of a return to the field this weekend as she pushes for selection in the Fijiana 15s match day 23 to face the Wallaroos.

After being sidelined with injury during the Super W season, Naihamu has been working hard in training to make best 23.

“Training has been tough because I was injured, just trying hard to come back during sessions. It’s not easy, but I’m grateful to God for giving me the strength so I can continue training before the team gets selected.”
