Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Captain, Nemani Nagusa says it feels great to be back playing rugby and he really enjoyed the internal trial match on Sunday afternoon.

This was the first time for them to take part in an intense match in NSW as some of the players had not played rugby for a long period of time due to COVID-19 restrictions in Fiji last year.

Nagusa says he left like he needed a new pair of lungs after the match.

He says the players are now looking forward to their trial match against the Rebels in Melbourne next Thursday.

The Drua will play the Waratahs in their opening game of Super Rugby Pacific at 8.45pm Friday 18th February in Sydney.
