Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua utility forward Bitila Tawake says one of the main things emphasised this week was winning the set-piece with the scrums and the lineouts.

Tawake says heading into their third Super Rugby Women’s final the main thing is to stay composed as everyone is hungry for the title.

She says they will be playing to their strengths and what they do best.

The utility forward says she is motivated by her family and friends as they are what keeps her going through the day.

When it comes to what rugby player she looks up to Tawake says it has to be Ardie Savea because he is brutal and ruthless on the field.

Tawake says the NSW Waratahs have been the most dominant team this season coming though undefeated.

The last time they met the Waratahs beat the Drua 60-21.

The Drua Women play the Waratahs at 4pm tomorrow.
