Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Mick Byrne says the team is disappointed that two of their most experienced players were shown cards for disciplinary issues during their match against the Waratahs last Friday.

Captain Nemani Nagusa was shown a red card for a high tackle in the first half while Frank Lomani was shown a yellow card in the second half.

Byrne says discipline is an issue they will continue to address every week.

Byrne confirmed that he has recovered after contracting COVID and will be joining the team tomorrow.

The Drua meet the Brumbies at 9.45pm Saturday.

In other matches this week, the Highlanders will face the Moana Pasifika at 7.05pm Friday, the Force will take on the Rebels at 9.45pm Friday, the Hurricanes will play the Crusaders at 4.35pm Saturday, and the Chiefs will face the Blues at 7.05pm Saturday.
