The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua has announced the re-signing of five backs beyond the current Shop N Save Super Rugby season.

They are Flying Fijians scrum halves Peni Matawalu and Simione Kuruvoli, Tokyo Olympics gold medal winning centre Iosefo Masi, utility Tuidraki Samusamuvodre and flyhalf Caleb Muntz.

Fijian Drua General Manager Rugby Nico Andrade says they are delighted with the re-signing of the five players, who are important members of the core squad.

He says it’s wonderful to have the continuity and consistency that the five players bring to the playing group.

Currently there are 28 players who have recommitted to the Drua beyond this current season.

The Drua will face the Crusaders at 3.35pm Saturday at Churchill Park.

Meanwhile the Crusaders touched down in Nadi last night.

They are expected to have their first run in the western heat today.
