Motikiai Murray is set to make his much-anticipated return to the Fijian Drua lineup this weekend after serving a six-match suspension. The flanker was sidelined following a dangerous tackle he executed during Round 3, in a close match against the Waratahs in Sydney.
Eager to get back on the pitch, Murray is looking forward to a challenging game against the same opponents this Saturday at Churchill Park in Lautoka. He acknowledges the steep competition and physicality they bring, which he is prepared to face head-on. “I’m looking forward to a good and tough game. It was a tough game against the Waratahs. Since the last game in Round 3, I know they’ll bring a good physical battle on Saturday,” he stated confidently.
During his absence from the game, Murray concentrated on improving his tackling technique, demonstrating his commitment to learn from past mistakes and enhance his impact on the field. His return comes at a crucial time for the Drua as they seek to secure their second win of the season.
Murray’s reintroduction to the team is not only vital for boosting his own confidence but also for uplifting team morale. With fans rallying behind his performance, there’s a strong sense of optimism that this match could serve as a turning point in the Drua’s season.
This landmark encounter is scheduled to kick off at 2:05 PM and will be broadcast live on FBC Sports, promising an exhilarating day for Fijian rugby fans.
