The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua is expecting a physical game against the Queensland Reds tomorrow in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific, however, Drua captain Tevita Ikanivere is determined that they can level the physicality tomorrow.

Ikanivere says there was a lot of physicality in training this week, and they also had a good session yesterday.

He says they have seen the weaknesses from their game against the Force last week and will do better against the Reds at home.

The 24-year-old says they have to be accurate, win the ball, keep their defence line and ensure the Reds don’t cross their try line.

The Drua will meet the Reds at 2.05pm tomorrow at the HFC Bank Stadium.
