  Kadavu 17 Cakaudrove West 20 - Teivovo.com
Here was the one chance a year that people from Cakaudrove and Kadavu had to see their heroes on television, but the TV folk stayed away not even bothering to pop in to record the highlights for the news.
Cakaudrove’s goal-kicking lock Ilai Vasulevu pulled three points back when Kadavu were caught offside, and in the 25th minute referee Joeli Tubu awarded the northerners a penalty try when Maravu slapped down the final pass of a lovely bit of interplay down the wing.
Cakaudrove West coach Anare Dovibua talked of his three styles of play – the kicking game, group game and spread game – and how they had to change tactics for the second half.

 Fiji Coup 2000: Mythical edifices of unity
The Tovata Confederacy, in which Cakaudrove has been grouped with Lau, was actually a result of the machinations of the Tongan chief Ma'afu, who came to dominate Lau in the mid-19th Century.

 RECONSTRUCTION OF ORNAMENTS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
It is interesting to notice that several antisymmetry rosettes and the most of antisymmetry friezes and plane antisymmetry ornaments can be derived in a very simple way, using just one basic element: Truchet tile (a fl-white square) or a full set of tiles derived from a square by its all fl-white colorings.
The same holds for a remarkable collection of antisymmetric patterns presented in one Cakaudrove cloth decoration, used as a cover of the book "Symmetry of Cultures" by D.K. Washburn and D.W. Crowe [3].
This indicates that artists and artisans even in the Neolithic period, or in ethnic art, from the prehistory till our days sometimes used a very restricted set of basic elements and their recombination.
