Swire Shipping Fijian Drua halfback Issac Fines-Leleiwasa says they will be putting everything on the line when they meet the Western Force this afternoon in round 9 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific.

Speaking from their home base in Nadi, Fines-Leleiwasa says they are chasing a good win after they did not have good results in their two previous matches.

He says it is awesome to be playing again in front of their home fans and he is expecting a good battle.

Speaking about Ben Donaldson, Fines-Leleiwasa says he has been on fire in recent weeks and it will be a good contest against him.

Coach Glen Jackson says they are lucky to have Fines-Leleiwasa in the team and it will be exciting to watch him on the field against his old club.



Jackson says he is knowledgeable about the Australian teams and this will be helpful in understanding their opposition.

Gates will open at 2.30pm.

The Fijian Drua will host the Force at 4.35pm today at Churchill Park in Lautoka.

Meanwhile, the Brumbies edged the Highlanders 14-10 earlier.

In other matches today, Moana Pasifika host the Chiefs at 2.05pm, the Hurricanes will face the Blues at 7.05pm, while the Reds play the Crusaders at 9.35pm.
