After registering the biggest crowd of any Super Rugby Pacific game this season against the Highlanders, the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua is confident of another sell out crowd against the Chiefs later this month.

Drua CEO Brian Thorburn says given the popularity of the Chiefs in Fiji, as well as the Drua, he has no doubt that they will get another sell out, and they will do everything they can to safely increase capacity at the venue.

He says the Chiefs are one of the leading sides in the competition with a squad featuring All Blacks such as Brad Webber, Anton Leinert-Brown, Brodie Retallick and Sam Cane.

The Fijian Drua will meet the Chiefs at 3pm on the 28th of this month at Churchill Park.

Meanwhile, the Fijian Drua will meet the Hurricanes in Wellington at 3.35pm this Sunday.
