The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua have today announced the signing of two players on short-term main squad contracts for the 2023 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific season.
Brisbane-based Wests Bulldogs prop Jone Tiko, who was also part of the squad last season, re-joins to provide cover in the front row.
He has already been capped by the Drua in 2022 and featured in both trial matches this year against the Melbourne Rebels and Western Force.
Young Nadroga winger and Drua development player Taniela Rakuro has also been promoted to the main squad to provide further depth in the back three.
The 22-year- old featured in the trial against Melbourne Rebels in January this year.
The Drua plays the Moana Pasifika at 3.35pm Saturday in Auckland.
