Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Glen Jackson has expressed his disappointment that the results are not going the way that they wanted to after a reasonable start, even though he knows that this is a young group of men who are trying to gel together in his first year as a coach.

Jackson says there is a bit of optimism and positivity that they can create something special, but also a bit of frustration when they do not get the results.

He says this competition now is a lot different to what it was the last three years.

Jackson says, that against the Highlanders, the first 15 minutes of the second half, they played exactly how they wanted to.

He says they just need to try and keep it up for longer.

The Drua now turns their focus to their home game against the Waratahs this weekend, with the hope of redeeming themselves and getting a win to keep their hopes of making it into the top 6 alive.

They are currently sitting in 11th place in the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific points table with 7 points.

The Drua will take on the Waratahs at 2.05pm Saturday at Churchill Park in Lautoka.

In other matches this week, the Crusaders will host the Blues at 7.05pm Friday, Moana Pasifika will take on the Brumbies at 4.35pm Saturday, the Chiefs will play the Highlanders at 7.05pm Saturday, and the Western Force will take on the Hurricanes at 9.35pm Saturday.
