Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women’s coach Ifereimi Rawaqa is not feeling any pressure as he turns his focus to this weekend’s trial match against the Brumbies Women in Canberra, his first game to coach the side after taking over from former coach Mosese Rauluni.

Rawaqa says he is more focused on his side than the opposition and hopes to get everything right before this trial match.

When asked about his expectations from the new players who will be making their first Drua appearance this weekend, Rawaqa says it is all about exposure for them.

Rawaqa has named a 26-member squad for this tour as he looks to try out his combinations before the 2025 Super W season starts next weekend.

The Drua Women will leave our shores tomorrow for this trial match against the Brumbies that will be played on Saturday afternoon.

They will take on the Waratahs at 5.05pm next Friday, at Allianz Stadium in Sydney in round 1 of the Super W.
