Swire Shipping Fijian Drua’s fixtures for their inaugural Super Rugby Pacific season is expected to be revised following a rise in COVID-19 cases in New Zealand.
The Drua were initially scheduled to take on the Blues at Eden Park in their first match however that seems unlikely now.
According to the stuff.co, the original Super Rugby Pacific draw is set to be the latest casualty of COVID-19-enforced disruption with a revised schedule set to be released next week.
The competition was thrown into confusion after the New Zealand government revealed a border opening plan that made it impossible for the competition to proceed as planned.
However, Rugby Australia Chief Executive Andy Marinos says Super Rugby clubs on both sides of the Tasman were committed to getting contingency plans over the line and they close to doing so.
Marinos says they are working furiously to get a revised draw.
