AFL Oceania Cup 2015

Nauru Stars win AFL Oceania Cup 2015

Fiji fans out-cheered the Nauru Stars cheer squad as they had the advantage playing on home ground.

Despite the home advantage the Stars used their team work skills and managed to kick a couple more goals to overtake Fiji’s lead and carry the game until the horn blew.

The Nauru Stars took out the victory cup for 2015.

The boys played superbly winning both the Lightning Cup and the main event AFL Oceania Cup, doing their country proud.

 A job well done and games well played.
