Drua now playing 90 minutes - Byrne

Our boys are now playing 90 minutes of rugby.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Mick Byrne stated this saying the boys now know they have it in the tank.

Byrne says they may have left a few points in there but when needed to, stepped up against the Waratahs last Saturday.

He says during golden point they were down in front of their line and just kept getting off the line and coming forward.

Meanwhile, the Drua will host their second double header this Saturday in Lautoka when the Drua Men and Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women take on the Western Force Men’s and Women’s teams respectively.

The Drua Men will play the Western Force at 1.05pm and the Drua Women will take on the Western Force at 3.35pm.

In other matches this week, the Crusaders will take on the Chiefs at 6.05pm Friday, the Waratahs will host the Rebels at 8.35pm Friday, Moana Pasifika will take on the Blues at 3.35pm Saturday, the Highlanders will play the Hurricanes at 6.05pm Saturday and the Reds will take on the Brumbies at 8.35pm Saturday.
