The game against the Waratahs is one where we need to front up, especially given the energy and motivation shown during our last encounter with them.

Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Head Coach, Glen Jackson highlighted this when asked by fijivillage Sports about their strategy heading into this weekend’s match.

Jackson says he believes the boys enjoy playing against the Sydney side, and there have been noticeable improvements.

He adds he always has confidence in the team’s performance, although the results have not always gone their way, the players have shown their quality in different parts of the game.
