For Fiji rugby fans, I believe the great performance by our Fijian Drua team going down 28-20 to the ACT Brumbies was a relaxant and pain killer, after our Fiji 7s team did not qualify for the Cup quarter-finals at the Singapore 7s.
Our Fijian Drua played well and nearly caused an upset. The home crowd was expecting the Brumbies to thrash the Fijian Drua after winning against the undefeated Hurricanes at home last week.
Our Fijian Drua have dropped to 8th place while the Highlanders have moved up to 7th place.
This week our boys play the Western Force who sit at the bottom of the points ladder and the Force will want to win their home game.
Our Fijian Drua can win their first away game this season, if they play their hearts out as a team, improve on their mistakes and play their own brand of rugby.
Toso Drua toso.
