24-year old Swire Shipping Fijian Drua flanker Joseva Tamani has become the talk of the town after his epic try during their thriller match against the Queensland Reds last Saturday.

The man from Ovalau snapped up a loose ball on the edge of his own 22 metre line and showed incredible pace as he raced down the field without a Reds player coming near him.

Flying Fijian wing, Nemani Nadolo compared the immense pace from the forward to former Reds No.8 Radike Samo.

The Drua will face the Force at 3.35pm Saturday.

In other matches this weekend, the Highlanders will meet the Moana Pasifika at 6.05pm Friday, the Brumbies will take on the Reds at 8.45pm Friday, the Crusaders will face the Blues at 6.05pm Saturday, the Waratahs will play the Rebels at 8.45pm Saturday and the Chiefs meet the Hurricanes at 2.35pm Sunday.
