The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua are looking at replicating what the Reds did last week against the Brumbies when they meet the Canberra side in Super Rugby Pacific on Saturday.

Coach Mick Byrne says the Reds made sure their scrum and mauls were defended well which resulted in their 21-7 victory.


He says this will be a big week for their forwards.

Byrne has confirmed that he has recovered after contracting COVID and will be joining the team today.

The Drua meet the Brumbies at 9.45pm Saturday.

In other matches this week, the Highlanders will face Moana Pasifika at 7.05pm Friday, Western Force will take on the Rebels at 9.45pm Friday, the Hurricanes will play the Crusaders at 4.35pm Saturday and the Chiefs will face the Blues at 7.05pm Saturday.
