Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Coach Glen Jackson has high praise for fly-half Isaiah Armstrong-Ravula, who he says everyone in Fiji knows is an awesome player.

Jackson highlighted this after the Drua's 42-27 victory over the Brumbies, saying Armstrong-Ravula is really steady, especially when he has skipper Frank Lomani by his side.

He says their fly-half's confidence is growing with each game, and his cross-field kicks to the wing are improving each game.

The Drua coach says inside centre Isikeli Rabitu is doing really well, just like Tuidraki Samusamuvodre, who is one of their leaders, is really driving their backline.     

Lomani says Armstrong-Ravula is becoming like his uncle, Richie Mo'unga, he is an asset for them with his kicking game and his attack.

The Fijian Drua will take on the Reds at 3.35pm Saturday at The Fortress in Lautoka.
