Swire Shipping Fijian Drua prop Haereiti Hetet has emphasized the necessity for the team’s forwards to elevate their performance in order to return to winning ways after suffering a 31-14 defeat to the Crusaders at HFC Bank Stadium. Hetet reflected on key areas where the forwards fell short, notably in executing lineouts and scrums, which he deemed crucial in the match.
He pointed out, “We need to be more coordinated on the field, especially when facing strong teams like the Crusaders.” Despite the challenges, Hetet remained optimistic, believing that with continued effort and improvement, the team can achieve its goals.
As they prepare for their upcoming match against the Highlanders this Saturday at 7:05 PM, Hetet and the Drua are dedicated to addressing the lessons learned from their recent performance. “Just nailing my role, nailing my job for the team and doing my best,” he stated, indicating that personal accountability and team effort will be paramount.
Reflecting on similar sentiments voiced by co-captain Tevita Ikanivere after their loss to the Crusaders, the Drua have been focusing on improving their game execution and maintaining composure in high-pressure moments. The team has shown resilience this season, and the upcoming game against the Highlanders is seen as a vital opportunity to break their losing streak and display their growth.
