Drua looks to break losing streak in Suva this week

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will be looking to break their losing streak in Suva this year when they take on the Reds tomorrow in round 12 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.

The Drua have played 4 home games so far this season, two of which they played in Suva and lost both.

Captain Mesake Doge says it has been a tough season for them, and they have only registered two wins so far this year, both in Lautoka, with no wins in Suva yet.

Doge says the players know what they have to do to secure a win tomorrow, and they are motivated.

He says he is looking forward to the game tomorrow as he knows it's going to be a good game.

When asked if there is any pressure on the players to try and make it into the top 6 this season, Doge says the pressure is always on the team every week, but they are always reminded to take one game at a time.

He says right now, they are focusing on the Reds, and the next game will come in its own time.

He adds that they will need to do their jobs first.

Doge has also sent his best wishes on behalf of the Drua to the Vodafone Fijiana XVs that will be taking on the Wallaroos in their test match at 5pm tomorrow at the HFC Bank Stadium.

The Drua will take on the Reds at 2.05pm tomorrow at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva.

In other matches, the Blues will host the Force at 7.05 tonight, the Hurricanes will take on the Chiefs at 7.05pm tomorrow, the Brumbies will face the Waratahs at 9.35pm tomorrow, and the Highlanders will meet Moana Pasifika at 3.35pm Sunday.
