The "OTHER' Rugby Show was lucky enough to follow Fijian rugby hero, Semi Kunatani, back to his home village of Naveyago for the first time since winning Gold in Rio.
The first Kava Bowl after the traditional ceremony was offered to George Gregan and not Semi Kunatani ( who is been celebrated for Fiji's Historic Olympic 7s Victory ). That is the Ultimate Show of Respect to one of Rugby's Legends.
every time I watched this, I just teared up. From a humble beginning to a rugby star. Its a lesson learned, God will exalt those who humbled themselves.
raised up the hard way of life in a remote fijian village, toiling the soil to olympic gold medallist how can you not feel emotional!! Thank you Semi...
semi was saying in his dialect he was thanking the villagers for taking care of him. most of the time he spend in the village gathering firewoods n helpng after he dropped out of school. the village was his family n their house was his house too.....vinavalevu Naveyago na veihuhu.
Vinaka Fox Sports Aussie for enlightening the story of this young and humble beast! He was always humble and always care for others! especially those older than him! I wished his mother was still alive to see all these! Vinakwa Mise!!
