21-year-old Motikiai Murray’s participation this week in round 6 of Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific is in doubt as he will front the Super Rugby Pacific Foul Play Review Committee for a dangerous tackle against the Brumbies last Friday.

Murray was shown a yellow card for an ugly tackle that forced Brumbies back Harrison Goddard from the field for a Head Injury Assessment.

Motikiai played an influential part in last week’s game against the Brumbies, scoring the Drua’s second try after halftime.

He was also named to the Fantasy Super Rugby Pacific team this week.

Meanwhile, the Drua landed in Perth yesterday, as they turn their focus now to their round 6 clash against the Western Force this weekend.

The Drua will play the Force at 6.05pm on Sunday at HBF Park in Perth.

In other matches this week, Moana Pasifika will take on the Chiefs at 6.05pm Friday, the Highlanders will play the Reds at 3.35pm Saturday, the Blues will host the Crusaders at 6.05pm Saturday, and the Waratahs will play the Brumbies at 8.35pm Saturday.

The Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women will take on the Western Force at 8.50pm Sunday at HBF Park in Perth.
