Reds game plan suits our style of rugby - Jackson

Reds game plan suits our style of rugby - Jackson

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua beat the Reds earlier this season and they know what it takes to defeat them again after looking at the way the Reds play their style of footy.

This was shared by the Drua Coach Glen Jackson as they look forward to their final game of the season.

Jackson says the Reds have a few Wallabies players returning like Harry Wilson who will add depth to their side.

He says the Reds opted for a kick at goal when they played the Drua during their previous game because every point matters and they will do the same in this final game.

Jackson says the Reds like to keep the ball alive and play a lot of rugby and the Drua will try and deny them off possession.

When questioned on the welfare of the players Glen says the players are fit and ready.

The Drua will face the Reds at 9.35pm on Saturday.

In other matches, the Highlanders will meet the Chiefs at 7.05pm tomorrow, the Brumbies will meet the Crusaders at 9.35pm tomorrow, the Blues will face the Waratahs at 4.35pm Saturday, the Hurricanes will take on the Moana Pasifika at 7.05pm.
