Selita Navusolo and her workmates say they are here to support the Swire Shipping Drua and Waratahs wing Mark Nawaqanitawase.

Navusolo and Luisa Nabati who live in Nadi are teasing their friend Akanisi Rokoderea who left Suva at 9 last night because she did not want to be stuck in traffic this morning.

She says for the fans still making their way to Lautoka to hurry as gates are now open and it is best you get your seats early and get ready to cheer our boys on.

fijivillage News also caught up with Drua commentators Sam Wykes and former Flying Fijians winger Nemani Nadolo who both agree that the weather will play a big part in today's game.

Wykes says the humidity is going to be difficult to play in but hopefully it holds off so the crowd can get behind both teams.

Nadolo says both teams need the win after a disappointing starts to the season and the Drua have a chance to make history as they have yet to beat the Waratahs.

This week is the kids round and the first 500 get in for free in the round 5 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.

The Drua Men's team play the Waratahs at 1.05pm before the Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women face the Waratahs at 3.35pm.

In other matches, the Chiefs meet the Highlanders at 3.35pm, the Blues host the Crusaders at 6.05pm and the Force play the Reds at 8.35pm
