Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Coach Mick Byrne says after last week, they have prepared well and will bring their physicality to tomorrow’s contest from kick off.

Byrne says they are looking forward to a tough game against the Waratahs.

He had earlier said instead of imposing themselves on the game they are waiting for the game to unfold.

Byrne had highlighted that they have to be urgent to play their game from the start.

The Drua battles the Waratahs at 8.45pm tomorrow.

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