Suva, Fiji – In a crushing blow to the Fijian rugby community, the Fiji National Rugby Union Team has been dealt a devastating blow with the news that star player, Nemani Nadolo, has suffered a season-ending injury.
The 30-year-old Nadolo, who has been a key player for the Flying Fijians in recent years, was injured during a training session yesterday and will require surgery to repair the damage. The extent of the injury is not yet known, but it is believed to be serious enough to rule him out of action for the remainder of the season.
Nadolo has been a key player for Fiji in recent years, earning 41 caps and scoring 15 tries for the national team. His absence will be deeply felt by the team and fans alike.
“It’s a huge blow for us,” said Fiji National Rugby Union Team Coach, John McKee. “Nemani is an important player for us and his loss will be felt throughout the squad. We will do everything we can to support him and help him recover from this injury.”
The news comes as Fiji prepares to face New Zealand in a crucial Rugby Championship match next weekend. The Flying Fijians are currently sitting at the bottom of the table and will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing loss to Argentina last weekend.
Fiji fans will be devastated by the news, with many taking to social media to express their disappointment and well-wishes for Nadolo’s recovery.
“We are all devastated by this news,” said Fiji Rugby Union CEO, John O’Connor. “Nemani is a beloved member of our team and we will do everything we can to support him through this difficult time. We wish him all the best for his recovery and look forward to seeing him back on the field as soon as possible.”
The Fijian rugby community will be holding its breath in the coming days as Nadolo undergoes surgery and begins his rehabilitation.
