Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Head Coach Mick Byrne says flyhalf Teti Tela stood by his role despite a less than average kicking game over the weekend.
Byrne said Tela who is currently the first-choice pivot for the Drua, still has a lot to offer.
“You know, there’s a couple of gold kicks missed but then you know, last year Teti, I think was the third best goalkeeper in the Super Rugby Pacific competition, so I don’t want to get bogged down,” Byrne said,
“The guy had a bad day.
“I’m pretty sure Tiger Woods had a bad day and at one stage in his career, even the great players have a day where things don’t quite go the way.
“He’ll be right,” he further added.
