Rupeni Caucau

This was confirmed by the Chairman of the Organising Committee, Jay Whyte.

Every year, Fijian rugby fans get to meet their rugby idol, who is in the country to be a chief guest at the tournament.

Caucau is a retired rugby player who last played professionally for Northland in the ITM Cup. His nickname is the "Bua Bullet" as he hails from the province of Bua.

The 39-year-old was described by the media as "one of the fastest and most flamboyant players in international rugby.

Caucau also played for French clubs Toulouse and Agen.

The former Blues winger was one of the stars of the 2003 Rugby World Cup and signed mega deals to play in France which should have set him up for life.

However, Caucaunibua has said in a short documentary called Oceans Apart for the Pacific Rugby Players' Welfare organisation that the money's all gone, spent on alcohol and handouts.

After firstly playing provincial rugby for Northland, Caucaunibuca went on to score some of the greatest tries ever seen in Super Rugby for the Blues.
