The defeat came just a week after the Force (1-5) stunned the Queensland Reds 40-31, and leaves their finals hopes hanging by a thread.
“This will feel like the one that we look back on, the one that got away from us,” White said.
“They just played these conditions a lot better than us.
“We had plenty of opportunities, but we weren’t able to capitalise. It’s going to hurt to look at.”
The Force arrived in Fiji a few days before Saturday’s clash to acclimatise to the heat, but it was driving rain and a heavily waterlogged pitch that greeted them on match day.
The visitors scored the opening try in the second minute through hooker Tom Hortoncourtesy of a 15-metre rolling maul.
