Suva Grammar’s Under 18 side has waited for 21-years for a chance to lift the Vodafone Super Deans trohpy.
Tomorrow, that long wait reaches its defining moment.
Grammar captain Waisale Bolakoro says the Lions have been building towards this opportunity for years, making their showdown with Lelean Memorial School about far more than 80 minutes of schoolboy rugby.
The captain knows what a victory would mean for a school that has not lifted the Under-18 title in more than two decades.

Investments promising social or environmental benefits need tougher anti-greenwashing rules Investment funds increasingly promise to deliver social or environmental benefits alongside financial returns. Regulators rightly ask if these “impact investment” claims are accurate. But we also need to ask what happens when an investment’s promised impact fails to materialise,

He says the team has been preparing for a moment like this since their early days in high school rugby, and now they have the opportunity to finish the journey they started years ago.
“For Suva Grammar it will be a big thing for us to bring back the trophy, and we understand Lelean is hungry for the win aswell. We’ve all prepared well and only time will tell now.”
Rather than getting caught up in Lelean’s strengths, Bolakoro says the Lions have kept their attention on themselves, using each match to improve and sharpen their game.
That belief has carried them through the season and into a final where the anticipation inside the Grammar camp is reaching fever pitch.
Bolakoro says the players are “hyped” and cannot wait to finally take the field.
But beneath the excitement is a deeper motivation.
A generation of Grammar players has come and gone without lifting the Under-18 crown.
Tomorrow, Bolakoro and his teammates have the chance to change that.
They meet at 6.10pm and you can watch the LIVE action on FBC SPorts.

The Fiji Revenue and Customs Service is strengthening its VAT refund processes, with eligible low-risk claims generally targeted for processing within 30 days from the end of the filing month.
Finance Minister Esrom Immanuel says that the government recognizes the importance of timely VAT refunds, particularly in helping businesses manage cash flow and working capital.
The Minister says FRCS uses a risk-based approach to assess and process VAT refund claims.
He says legitimate and compliant low-risk claims are identified through automated risk-based parameters and expedited through streamlined verification.


However, high-risk or complex claims do not have a fixed processing timeframe.
“High-risk claims remain under pre-refund verification and audit before net payable sums are confirmed. A number of measures are being undertaken to improve the process. This includes strengthening the risk-based verification, improving the hedging analysis, as well as establishing a clear case ownership and escalation process, and better distinguishing straightforward low-risk claims from those requiring further review.”
Immanuel says outstanding VAT refund claims have historically ranged between $160 and $200 million dollars, while FRCS processes an average of $32 to $35 million dollars in total refunds each month.
The Minister clarified that the credit balance recorded in a taxpayer’s account does not necessarily represent the amount that will ultimately be paid.
