The Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua suffered its first ever defeat in Super W, losing 31-5 to the Waratahs.

In a repeat of the 2022 final, the Waratahs emerged victorious this time, avenging the loss of a title they held from 2018 until last year.

Fijiana started strongly with Vitalina Naikore proving to be a constant threat but handling errors denied them from capitalizing on their chances.

The Tahs were relentless at the breakdown and their defense stood the test of the Fijiana Drua.

After a solid seven minutes of back and forth play, the Waratahs were on the board with the try coming at the back of a good solid scrum.

They were patient with the ball and Desiree Miller opened the scoring, diving through at the corner backed up by Layne Morgan to lead 12-0 at the break.

Lavenia Tinai scored Fiji’s lone try.
