We need to stand up and face the consequences – Derenalagi

For the love of the game, we need to stand up and face the consequences.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Captain Ratu Meli Derenalagi stated this adding the boys did not play the way they were told to, after their loss to the Western Force last week.

Derenalagi says some of them were still riding high from the win against the Hurricanes and just did not work twice as hard as they do during their home games.

Drua Coach Mick Byrne adds they cannot use travelling as an excuse and they just need to learn how to deal with it.

The Fijian Drua is currently in 9th place on the Super Rugby Pacific points table with 17 points.

The Fijian Drua will play the Waratahs in round 13 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific at 9.35pm Saturday.

In other matches this week, Moana Pasifika will host the Crusaders at 7.05pm Friday, the Reds will take on the Blues at 9.35pm Friday, the Highlanders will take on the Rebels at 4.35pm Saturday, the Chiefs will play the Hurricanes at 7.05pm Saturday while the Force will take on the Brumbies at 12am Sunday.
