We need to start fast and start powerful.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Assistant Coach Brad Harris stated this in an interview this afternoon adding they need to start the game really well against the Reds.

Harris says that is on both sides of the ball, and its packing down on their defence, and they have done that well in their home games.

He also says this has generally led to a good performance like in the Rebels game which was the best start they have had all year.

The Assistant Coach further says the Reds were red hot last week.


The Drua host the Queensland Reds at 4.35pm Saturday.

Gates at the HFC Bank Stadium open at 1.35pm.

You can buy your tickets from Jack’s of Fiji outlets, Fiji Sports Council offices, or online at drua.flicket.io.

In other games this week, the Blues will play the Highlanders at 7.05pm Friday, the Brumbies meet the Rebels at 9.35pm, the Hurricanes host the Crusaders at 7.05pm Saturday, the Waratahs play Moana Pasifika at 9.35pm Saturday and the Western Force host the Chiefs at 12pm Sunday.
