Discipline and basic handling errors are areas the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua must improve ahead of their clash with the Waratahs.

Head coach Glen Jackson highlighted this during the post-match press conference in Lautoka, saying the team made too many simple handling mistakes.

Jackson emphasized that they cannot afford such errors at this level of competition, especially against strong Super Rugby sides.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Captain Temo Mayanavanua says they will work on their discipline this week.
