Preparing after a win is one of the new things for the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua side as they look forward to another brutal battle tomorrow when they take on Moana Pasifika in round 11 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.

This was highlighted by coach Glen Jackson following their 28-14 win over the Waratahs in Lautoka over the weekend.

Jackson says it was good for the team to secure a pretty important and impressive win on Saturday and he thought it was hard work out there in the heat and in the field.

Jackson says Moana Pasifika will be hurting from being thrashed by the Brumbies over the weekend because they have been awesome this year, especially inside the 22-metre line.

He says Moana Pasifika are the best team in terms of getting inside their opponent’s territory and then scoring points.

He adds he knows their opponent will be fired up for this game, so the Drua will need to make sure they have the fittest players who are ready to play rugby away in Auckland.

The Drua will take on the Moana Pasifika at 4.35pm tomorrow at North Habour Stadium, New Zealand.

In other matches, the Chiefs will host the Force at 7.05pm tonight, the Reds will take on the Blues at 9.35pm, the Highlanders will take on the Crusaders at 7.05pm tomorrow and the Brumbies will play the Hurricanes at 9.35pm tomorrow.
