Fiji Airways Drua captain John Stewart says they will make the most of the opportunity to shop themselves to the rugby world tomorrow in their first National Rugby Championship against the Brisbane City.
A proactive national body has ensured Fiji's latest faces won't end up representing another country, like so many of their predecessors.
But Drua's NRC arrival still presents a chance for Fiji's best local talent to catch the eye of Super Rugby or European clubs.
Stewart played for Japanese Super Rugby outfit Sunwolves last season, but is off contract for 2018 and like his teammates knows what is at stake.
Meanwhile the Fiji Rugby Union has ensured this squad is off the market, meaning that they have signed the Drua to contracts and capping those who had not already tasted Test rugby in a Fiji A v Tonga A clash earlier this year.
The Fiji Airways Drua will play Brisbane City at 5pm tomorrow at Ballymore Stadium with City boasting exiled Wallabies playmaker Quade Cooper and Samu Kerevi.
