Basic mistakes are proving us too costly - Dolokoto

Basic mistakes are proving us too costly - Dolokoto

As the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua turns their focus to a new week and a new battle ahead of them at home this Saturday, basic mistakes and preventable errors are some things that they are looking to avoid when they play the Reds in round 12 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.

Following their tough 34-15 loss to Moana Pasifika on Saturday, stand-in captain Mesulame Dolokoto admitted that simple mistakes cost them that game.

Dolokoto says they did not really capitalize and did not execute well against Moana Pasifika and they gave away 50-50 passes.

The Drua currently sits in 11th place with 11 points following their loss on Saturday.

They will need to win their remaining three games with bonus points and hope that other results will go in their favour if they are to make the top 6.

The Drua will take on the Reds at 2.05pm at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva.
