Drua game the hottest ticket in the competition - Maloney

A combination of electric rugby and high-wattage crowd support has made an afternoon at a Drua game the hottest ticket in the competition.

Rugby Commentator Sean Maloney says the Fijian Drua have done it again, rolling a top-four team in front of a packed house at home and the high-flying Hurricanes are their latest victims.

Maloney also says it's now irrefutable the Fiji crowd are the most vocal and fanatical in the tournament, their love of the game is almost unmatched.

He further says why don't we take the whole party to the island next year and go with 'Bula Round' instead of Super Round?

The former Manly lock adds the infrastructure is there as the stadiums in Suva and Lautoka can hold 15,000 and 11,000 people respectively. The desire for the matches certainly is.

Former Wallabies Stephen Hoiles and Morgan Turinui also agree with Maloney it's a goer.

Hoiles says get there early in the week, go to the villages, embrace the communities, it's such a special place.

Former Wallabies centre Morgan Turinui adds Australian and New Zealand rugby have benefited so much from Fiji over the years, it would be awesome to give back and for people here to see just how much Fijians love rugby up close.

The Force will host the Drua at 9.35pm Friday.
