The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will play a Chiefs side that will still be hurting from their 25-19 loss to the Reds last week.

The squad flew out this morning on their Fiji Airways flight to Auckland before going on to Hamilton for their round 4 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific game tomorrow.

It will also be a sort of homecoming for a few Drua players like Selestino Ravutaumada, Haereiti Hetet, Zuriel Togiatama, Te Ahiwaru Cirikidaveta, Junior Ratuva and Etonia Waqa who used to play club rugby in Waikato.

The Chiefs have a 2-0 record against the Drua beating them 35-34 in 2022 and 50-17 last year.

The Drua play the Chiefs at 6.30pm tomorrow in Waikato.

In other matches, the Crusaders meet the Hurricanes at 6.05 tonight, the Rebels face the Reds at 8.35 tonight, the Force will take on Moana Pasifika at 11 tonight, the Highlanders will host the Brumbies at 3.35pm tomorrow and the Waratahs will play the Blues at 8.35 tomorrow night.
