It will be a baptism of fire for the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua as they take on the Queensland Reds in the Super W grand final tonight.

After a not-so-great season this year registering only 2 wins out of five games, the Fijiana Drua will be looking to overcome the odds stacked against them and defend their title.

The Fijiana Drua lost to the Reds 45-22 in round 5 but managed to qualify for the semi finals after finishing in the top four.

They overcame the Waratahs 20-17 in a thrilling semi final matchup last week and will try and turn the tables on the Reds today.

The Fijiana Drua will play the Reds at 6.45pm.
