Drua not in top six yet, Jackson keeps team grounded despite win

Drua not in top six yet, Jackson keeps team grounded despite win

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Coach Glen Jackson says he has tried to keep his team grounded in reality as they are not in the top six.

Jackson highlighted this from the Drua base in Nadi, saying they have not done anything, but won a game of rugby.

He says they have won two and lost two, that is the record, and that is where they are at.

The Drua coach says they have players like Isoa Nasilasila, who has played 50 games, and skipper Frank Lomani, who has just been phenomenal in his leadership.


Jackson says Isaiah Armstrong-Ravula is only 21 but has already scored 200 points.

He also had high praise for inside centre Isikeli Rabitu.

The Drua play the Reds at 3.35pm today at The Fortress in Lautoka.

In other games today, Moana Pasifika will host the Crusaders at 6.05pm, while the Waratahs play the Blues at 8.35pm.
