Fiji Airways Fijian Drua must win round seven of the

Australian National Rugby Championship match against Queensland Country on Saturday.

Coach Senirusi Seruvakula said they regarded the match at Lawaqa Park, Sigatoka as a final game for them.

“There are no injured players and we had a clarity session as this game is very important for us,” Seruvakula said.

“We need to do our process well. If we can do that then Saturday can take care of itself. This is just like a final for us. Queensland Country is a good team. We have to look at ourselves of how we want to play our game and follow our system.

“We’re not only looking for a win but a bonus win to make the semifinal next week.

“It depends on how we start the game and we can’t afford to play like we did last week.

“The advantage is on our side and we are playing at home and we need to be accurate this Saturday.”

Team captain Joeli Veitayaki said they should be ready by Saturday.

“We have to smart and be disciplined. We should be ready come Saturday and we are looking forward to it. We need a bonus win to be in the semifinal next week.

“We have to stick to our system, structure and play 80 minutes of rugby.

“We are calling on rugby fans to come out in numbers and support us.”
