The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua today announced the re-signing of four more of their players in the likes of Fiji Water Flying Fijians winger Selestino Ravutaumada and fullback Ilaisa Droasese along with Michael Naitokani and Apisalome Vota ahead of the 2024 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific season.

In a statement, the club says Ravutaumada and Droasese have completed their first-ever international campaigns, with their explosive speed and power contributing to a successful outing for the national side.

They say securing the services of powerhouse centre Vota alongside rising star Naitokani is a bonus.

Fijian Drua CEO Mark Evans says the club is showcasing further consistency and continuity in their squad for the 2024 season.

He says the four backs announced today offer the club so much both on and off the field and the world’s best rugby fans can look forward to the attacking skills as well as the power and guile of these players in 2024.

Pre-season for the Fijian Drua has started, with all players except those returning from Flying Fijians' duties already at training.

The Fijian Drua will kick off their 2024 Shop N Save Super Rugby campaign in Round 1 against the Blues on 24 February in Whangarei, New Zealand.
