Swire Shipping Fijian Drua CEO Brian Thorburn says they have plans to build more temporary grandstands if the demands are high for the Fijian Drua and Chiefs match that will be held at Churchill Park in Lautoka on the 28th of this month.

They will construct one temporary grandstand adjacent to the Concrete Grandstand and if the demand grows they will build more.

He says the crowd could reach as high as 14,000 from the 11,000 capacity that the Park has.
