Manasa Vakabua, one of the two winners of the fijivillage Viber platform competition, is eager to watch his best Swire Shipping Fijian Drua player, Salestino Ravutaumada when they take on the Crusaders in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific match in Lautoka today.

Vakabua says this will be the first time he will watch him play in a live match.

He says he was overwhelmed to win the ticket for this game, and he can not wait to go down and cheer for his Drua team. He adds that he's positive the boys will collect their first win against the defending champion today. The Drua will take on the Crusaders at 1.05pm in Lautoka today.

In other matches today, the Brumbies will host the Western Force at 3.35pm, the Hurricanes will play the Blues at 6.05pm, and the Reds will take on the Chiefs at 8.35pm
