The Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua has named a 42-member extended squad in preparation for their defence of the Super W Championship.

FRU Chief Executive John O’Connor says they have retained 15 local players who were part of the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua last year, and nine new players have also made their way into the extended squad.

O’Connor says they are now focused on the players involved in their local competitions and will consider opportunities for the overseas-based players in January.

He believes that the Fijiana Drua will have an exciting 2023 calendar.
