The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will get to play their game plan against the Western Force this time around after the weather dictated the strategies that they came in with, in their last meeting in round 6 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific match in Lautoka.

This was highlighted by coach Mick Byrne ahead of their return clash against the Force in Perth this weekend.

The last time the two teams met, there was a heavy downpour at Churchill Park in Lautoka in which the Drua managed to come out victorious 31-13.

Byrne says the players needed to adjust themselves and play to what the weather presented.

He says this weekend the Force will want to make amends and avenge that loss and also will want to redeem themselves after being thrashed 56-7 by the Chiefs last week.
