The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua’s hopes of making it into the top 6 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific is still alive but with a lot of hard work from the team in the remaining matches and also some miracles in other results in the remaining rounds.

Currently sitting in last place with 11 points and only 2 wins so far this season, the Drua will need to work hard and secure bonus point wins in their remaining four matches and hope that the Western Force, the Waratahs, Moana Pasifika, the Blues and the Highlanders will not get more points in their remaining matches.

The Drua have three back-to-back home matches lined up ahead of them in the next three weeks and they will hope to get the results in their favour before their final match of the round-robin games against the Reds again on the 31st of next month.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs are currently leading the points table and are locked at 37 points with second-placed Crusaders, while the Brumbies are in 3rd place with 29 points.

The Reds are 4th with 27 points, the Hurricanes are in 5th place and are locked at 22 points with the Force who are in 6th place.

The Drua will take on the Reds at 2.05pm this Saturday at the HFC Bank Stadium in round 12 of the Super Rugby Pacific.

In other matches this week, the Blues will host the Force at 7.05pm Friday, the Hurricanes will take on the Chiefs at 7.05pm Saturday, the Brumbies will take on the Waratahs at 9.35pm Saturday, and the Highlanders will take on the Moana Pasifika at 3.35pm Sunday.
