The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua are glad to be back home for their round 6 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific match against the Rebels.

Fijian Drua coach Mick Byrne says that on away games their training is interrupted because of the travelling.

Byrne adds they are expecting a fast and physical game this weekend.

He says the Rebels will run hard on the ball, and come and take them on up front which is something he says they also pride themselves on.

The Drua will play the Rebels 3.35pm Saturday at the HFC Bank Stadium.

Meanwhile, the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua will face the Rebels at 1.05pm.

In other games this weekend, the Moana Pasifika play the Highlanders at 6.05pm Friday, the Reds face the Crusaders at 8.35pm on Saturday, the Chiefs face the Blues at 6.05pm Saturday, the Brumbies host the Waratahs at 8.35pm, and the Hurricanes will meet the Force at 3.35pm Sunday.
