Having two world-class fly-halves is an asset for Drua - Jackson

Having two world-class fly-halves is an asset in any team, and the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua are grateful to Isaiah Armstrong-Ravula and Caleb Muntz for providing the balance and working around the team's leadership, which has really boosted the kicking game.

This has been shared by Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Head Coach Glen Jackson who says the learning from losing those games in the last minutes is getting better, given they are the youngest team in Super Rugby.

He says he has spoken to the players about starting the game well, especially going into the break at half-time with a deficit against a team like the Chiefs, and containing and defeating them speaks volumes of the Drua's capabilities.

The Drua will play the Brumbies at 8.35pm Friday at GIO Stadium, Canberra.

In other matches this week, the Highlanders will play the Hurricanes at 6.05pm Friday, the Crusaders will take on the Western Force at 3.35pm Saturday, the Chiefs will battle the Blues at 6.05pm Saturday, and the Reds will play the Waratahs at 8.35pm Saturday.

Meanwhile, the Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women’s side will play the Brumbies Women at 3.35pm on Saturday at Churchill Park, Lautoka.
