Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Head Coach Mick Byrne says they need to learn to execute their exit plan and play sensible game inside their 22.

Byrne says even though they went down to the Highlanders 27-24, they still showed their home fans what they can do just after 10 matches in the Super Rugby competition.

Captain Meli Derenalagi says the players gave all their effort in the first half and were also selfish.

Meanwhile, Fijian Drua Head of Athletic Performance, Nacanieli Cawanibuka says they are bitterly disappointed that they didn’t finish the job while facing the Highlanders yesterday but will work harder to come back better.
