Honesty is best policy for recovery says Rasolea

- By DAVID BARNES

The grass is not always greener on the other side. Solomoni “Junior” Rasolea knows this better than most, having struggled to command a starting position at Edinburgh since moving from Western Australia during the summer. But the Fijian-born centre – who has played for the Australian Sevens team – says he has been impressed by the honesty culture at the club.

Having been part of the Western Force side which managed just two wins in the last Super Rugby season, he knows what it is like to be part of a team with a losing habit – Edinburgh have won just one of their first four games this season – but the 25-year-old says that there is a refreshing determinat­ion inside the squad to address their failings head-on.
