Papua New Guinea's Morea Baru has won the Pacific's first medal of the Commonwealth Games.
But the weightlifter says a silver medal on the Gold Coast fell below his expectations.
Baru lifted a combined total of 286kgs in the men's 62kg division, two kilograms shy of gold medallist Muhamad Bidin from Malaysia.
The 27 year old was unable to complete his final lift and admitted to Vinnie Wylie he got nervous.
