Fijiana Drua lead Super W points table after historic Round 1 win.

The Fijiana Drua are now leading Australia's Super W competition points table after a historic 66-5 win over the Melbourne Rebels in their opening match last night.

They recorded a bonus point through last night's win and lead with 5 points.

In second place is the Reds while the Waratahs are third.

Ten tries were scored by the Fijiana Drua in the match.

Fullback Roela Radiniyavuni scored three tries while Kolora Lomani scored a double.

Flyhalf Merewalesi Rokouono kicked seven conversions.

The first try for the Drua was scored by Jiowana Sauto in the 9th minute while Radiniyavuni scored the final try for the Drua in the 73rd minute.

This was the Fijiana Drua’s first match in any tournament since the extended squad was named more than two years ago while the Melbourne Rebels are a very experienced side that has been playing together for the past 3 years.
