Swire Shipping Fijian Drua head coach Mick Byrne says, his team can match the physicality of any of the 11 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific teams, if they are playing 15 against 15.

The former Wallabies and All Blacks skills coach made the comment after their upset 25-24 win over Crusaders at Lautoka’s Churchill Park, last Saturday.
