After their impressive win over the defending Super Rugby W Champion the Waratahs last weekend, the Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women are looking to back that performance up today and claim a win in front of their home fans against the Reds as this will surely set the pace for them in terms of achieving their goal of booking a home semi final this year.

Coach Ifereimi Rawaqa says the Reds are a quality side and the Drua Women will look to do the first things right and the scoreboard will take care of itself.

Rawaqa says their focus is to win today’s match and the remaining matches in order to achieve their target of a home semi final.

He says the focus this week is to start again after that win last week and make sure they plant off it again.

In other Super Rugby W matches today, the Waratahs will take on the Western Force at 6.05 this evening.

Meanwhile, the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will take on the Chiefs at 3.35pm today at Churchill Park in Lautoka.
