Teti Tela will captain the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua for the crucial match against the Brumbies on Friday night while Kitione Taliga, Haereiti Hetet and Rusiate Nasove are returning to the match day squad.

Zuriel Togiatama will make his first start at hooker pairing up with Livai Natave and Samuela Tawake, while Isoa Nasilasila will lock up with Te Ahiwaru Cirikidaveta.

Joseva Tamani and Kitione Salawa are the flankers while Elia Canakaivata slots in at number 8.

In the backline Peni Matawalu pairs up once again with flyhalf Teti Tela.

Tela is captaining the team following the unavailability of Meli Derenalagi.

Tuidraki Samusamuvodre returns to the left wing and will partner Eroni Sau while Kalaveti Ravouvou remains at inside centre, with Iosefo Masi outside him, and Taliga completes the backline at fullback.

Isoa Nasilasila, Kitione Salawa and Iosefo Masi have started every match this season for the Drua. The Fijian Drua will face the ACT Brumbies at GIO Stadium in Canberra at 9.35pm Friday.
