Onus on the Drua to create history today after the Blues and the Brumbies won their respective games last night

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua now has the onus on them to create history today by beating the Queensland Reds and qualifying for the cup quarter finals of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific competition after the Blues and the Brumbies did them a huge favour by winning their respective games last night.

The Blues beat the Highlanders 16-9 in Auckland while the Brumbies beat the Rebels 33-17 in Canberra last night.

This now leaves the Fijian Drua with their only hope now of beating the Reds in Suva today to create history.

The Drua and the Reds have played each other twice and both matches were decided by a margin of 5 points or less with the Reds winning both encounters.

The Drua will take on the Reds at 4.35pm today at the HFC Bank Stadium with the gates opening at 1.35pm.
