As the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua prepares for their final two matches of the season, they are focused on achieving redemption starting this weekend against the Western Force in Lautoka. Head coach Glen Jackson has highlighted lineouts as a crucial strength for the Drua and mentioned that his forwards are diligently working to perfect this area of their game.
Jackson noted that the playing style of the Western Force resembles that of the Drua, indicating that his players must be vigilant about loose balls, as the Force has a history of capitalizing on such opportunities. “They use the ball a lot, and the lineout is a weapon for them. We’ve already pinpointed aspects of their game we think we can exploit,” Jackson said.
The Western Force arrived in Nadi on Monday evening and have begun acclimatizing to the local weather ahead of Saturday’s showdown, which will take place at Churchill Park at 3:35 PM. Fans can catch the action live on FBC Sports.
The Drua have faced challenges this season, sitting at the bottom of the points table, but the team’s resilience and the unwavering support from their fans instill hope for a strong performance. Jackson has previously emphasized the importance of discipline and effective game management, stating that a victory could reignite their chances for resurgence in the league.
As they head into this critical match, the Drua’s dedication and hard work serve as a rallying call for their supporters, creating a hopeful atmosphere for what could potentially be a turning point in their season. The combination of returning players and strategies aimed at harnessing their strengths puts the team in a prime position to achieve a much-needed victory against the formidable Western Force.
