The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will need to maintain discipline if they want to win their battle against the Crusaders in Round 8 of the Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific tomorrow.

Drua captain Frank Lomani says the Crusaders have been in the Super Rugby competition for a long time and have mastered the game well.

Lomani says the game against the Crusaders is vital, and they must win to secure a spot in the top eight of the points table.

He adds they cannot afford to lose momentum, as this will be a crucial match for them.
