The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua’s goal in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific next season is to make their fans proud of them as they will aspire to achieve more when they play their part right on the field.

This was highlighted by the Fijian Drua Head of Commercial and Marketing Shane Hussein during the 2024 Shop N Save Super Rugby fixtures Announcement today.

Hussein says with 7 home games next year, the Fijian Drua team can’t wait to bring the excitement back to their local fans that are now tagged as the world’s best rugby supporters.

He says the Fijian Drua final squad for the 2024 season will be announced later this year with majority of the players from this season’s squad expected to be named in the squad for next season.

He adds that with the inclusion of former France based winger Epeli Momo it will add depth to the Fijian Drua back line and is expected to blend well with players like Selestino Ravutaumada, Taniela Rakuro and other players in the squad.

The Fijian Drua will host the NSW Waratahs, the Western Force, defending champions the Crusaders, the Hurricanes, Moana Pasifika, the Queensland Reds and the Melbourne Rebels.

The Fijian Drua will face the Auckland Blues in Auckland on the 24th of February next year in the first round of the 2024 Shop N Save Super Rugby season.
