The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will be heading into this weekend’s round 11 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific clash against Moana Pasifika with one mindset, and that is “a win is a win”

Following their 28-14 win over the Waratahs last week, Fijian Drua’s stand-in captain and hooker Mesulame Dolokoto says they know they have got to execute successfully.

Dolokoto says whether it be 3, 5 or 7 points, they have got to come back with a win.

He says it was a tough game against the Waratahs and they prepared accordingly last week for that match.

Despite the win over the weekend, the Fijian Drua still sits at the bottom of the table with 11 points with 2 wins and 7 losses.

They still have a chance to make it into the top 6 by the end of the round-robin competition, but they will need to keep winning their remaining 5 matches ahead of them.

The Drua will take on the Moana Pasifika at 4.35pm this Saturday at North Habour Stadium, New Zealand.

In other matches this week, the Chiefs will host the Force at 7.05pm Friday, the Reds will take on the Blues at 9.35pm Friday, the Highlanders will take on the Crusaders at 7.05pm Saturday and the Brumbies will play the Hurricanes at 9.35pm Saturday.
