22 local and 8 overseas-based players have been selected for the Fijiana Drua extended squad that will compete in the Super W competition.

Coach Senirusi Seruvakula says the 22 local players have been part of the Fiji Rugby Skipper Championship since 2019.

He says they have been preparing for the Super W competition and Rugby World Cup since 2019 and are very fortunate to have been given such a great opportunity ahead of the 2021 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.

He says they are looking forward to flying over to Brisbane next week where they will play their first trial match against the Queensland Reds next Saturday.

Fijiana Drua 30-member squad is as follows:
