Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Coach Mick Byrne

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua knows what the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific playoffs are all about and they are geared up for this weekend’s quarter final clash against the Blues.

Coach Mick Byrne says they were in the quarter finals last year and they know there will be a big step up in intensity.

Byrne says their week of training does not change either than getting a lot of energy around to what needs to be done.

He says they are coming off a good victory against the Melbourne Rebels last week and they are ready for the Blues this weekend.
