Joji Nasova has been given the green light to make an impact this Saturday as he prepares for his debut against the Hurricanes in their round three Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific match.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Coach, Glen Jackson highlighted this from the Drua base, expressing confidence in Nasova’s transition from sevens to the 15s format.

Jackson says the switch has been impressive, noting that a player of Nasova’s caliber blessed with both skill and power, has the potential to light up the field this weekend.

He says that Epeli Momo is also brimming with confidence and will benefit from having a strong winger making his debut alongside him.

Jackson further highlighted that the atmosphere in camp has been outstanding, with the players eager and excited for Saturday’s clash.

The Drua will face the Hurricanes at 3.35pm Saturday at Churchill Park, Lautoka.

Moana Pasifika will play the Force tomorrow at 6.05pm, and the Reds will face the Highlanders at 8.35pm.

On Saturday, the Chiefs will face the Crusaders at 6.05pm, while the Brumbies will take on the Blues at 8.35pm.

Meanwhile, after Round Two of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific, the Drua are at the bottom of the table in 11th place.
