Former Suva Grammar School student Jeneiro Wakeham and Fiji U20 players Moses Armstrong Ravula and Pita Manamanaivalu have been named in the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua’s 12-member Development Squad for 2026.
They are joined by nine other players, including four returnees from last year’s group.
The Development Player programme is part of the Drua pathway, giving emerging talent access to a high-performance environment and preparing them for Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.
Development Coach Nemani Nadolo-Kuridrani said the squad was selected based on strong club performances and Fiji Under-20 representation.
“They’ve earned their place here, and combined with those who’ve been with us over the past few years, we have a strong group,” he said.
2026 Development Squad:
Jeneiro Wakeham, Moses Armstrong Ravula, Pita Manamanaivalu, Bogi Kikau, Harold Rounds, JD Sivivatu Kanth, Joshua Uluibau and Sairusi Ravudi, Breyton Legge, Maleli Nauvasi, Kalioni Ratunabuabua and Joweli Walevu, who were identified at a local sevens competition in 2025.
