The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will need to maintain discipline if they want to win their battle against the Crusaders in Round 8 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific tomorrow.

Drua captain Frank Lomani says the Crusaders have been in the Super Rugby competition for a long time and have mastered the game well.

Lomani says the game against the Crusaders is vital, and they must win to secure a spot in the top eight of the points table.

He adds they cannot afford to lose momentum, as this will be a crucial match for them.

The captain also highlighted that with a one-week break, the team has refined the basics and now the ball is in their hands to deliver a strong performance tomorrow.

The Drua will play the Crusaders at 3.35pm tomorrow at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva.

Meanwhile, a moment of silence will be observed for VITIFM’s iconic personality, Maikeli Radua, before the match kicks off.

In other matches this week, the Chiefs will take on the Reds at 6.05pm today, Moana Pasifika will host the Waratahs at 1.05pm Saturday, the Blues will take on the Hurricanes at 6.05pm tomorrow , and the Force will play the Highlanders at 8.35pm tomorrow.
