The Melbourne Rebels' cash woes are spilling out from the boardroom to the rugby field. Wallabies winger Filipo Daugunu will miss Friday's Super Rugby clash against the Hurricanes over a $7,500 debt owed to him by the club.
The Fijian-born speedster also sat out his side's loss to the Reds last week in an apparent stand-off over the unpaid debt.
It comes after the Rebels were placed in voluntary administration in January, with debts exceeding $22,500,000.
