The warm conditions in Perth will surely favor the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua side as they hunt for their first away win.

Drua Coach Glen Jackson says this is a must win clash and he is positive his players will get the job done this Sunday.

He says despite a chilly start to the week, the team has adjusted well and is ready to make the most of the weather advantage, and with temperatures expected to rise to around 30 degrees by game day, he believes the conditions will work in the Drua’s favour.

The Fijian Drua faces the Western Force at 6.05 pm this Sunday in Perth for round 6 of the 2025 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific season.

The Rooster Chicken Fijian Drua Women’s team will face Western Force at 8.35pm on Sunday.
