The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will be aiming to end their 2025 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific season on high note after failing to finish in the top 6.

Head Coach Glen Jackson says the players are excited to finish the season well, and they know it will be a daunting task with the Reds.

Jackson says the team were on a-bye last week, and preparations for this game have been long, and the players are eager to go out and execute in Brisbane this week.

He says they are nursing some injuries in camp and are looking ahead in the next few days to see how the players respond before they name their final team.

Jackson says they expect a fast-paced game from the Queensland Reds this week, and the players are prepared to end the season with a win.

He says the Drua players love to play against the Reds, and both teams will want to end the season with a win.



The Drua will face the Reds at 9.35pm Saturday.

In other matches, the Highlanders will meet the Chiefs at 7.05pm this Friday, the Brumbies will meet the Crusaders at 9.35pm Friday, the Blues will face the Waratahs at 4.35pm Saturday, the Hurricanes will take on the Moana Pasifika at 7.05pm.
