Defensively, we need to get off the line and keep our systems strong.

This was highlighted by Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Mick Byrne to the media when asked on how they will deal with a fast paced Western Force team.

Byrne says the Western Force plays a good brand of rugby and so do the Drua.

The Drua had their Captains run earlier today and are all geared up for tomorrow’s game.

The Drua Men play the Western Force at 1.05pm tomorrow while the Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women play the Force at 3.35pm at Churchill Park, Lautoka.

In other matches, the Crusaders meet the Chiefs at 6.05 tonight, the Waratahs will face the Rebels at 8.35 tonight, Moana Pasifika will take on the Blues at 3.35pm tomorrow, the Hurricanes will play the Highlanders at 6.05pm tomorrow, and the Reds will face the Brumbies at 8.35pm tomorrow.
