Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Glen Jackson says the team is ready for a strong contest when they face the Crusaders in round 8 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific competition tonight.

Speaking from New Zealand, Jackson says he hopes to send the Crusaders home without a win, something fans in Fiji would certainly welcome.

He says the team has been preparing well for the match.

Despite several injuries in the backline, he remains confident in the squad’s depth.
