“There are a few Drua boys. I will look again at the final. Obviously they did fantastically well to get there anyway and I am looking forward to seeing that. I am conscious of working with the boys that are doing well at the moment and they continue to do well. Obviously the talent on the island is especially good for me in 7s.”

The Drua plays Queensland Country at 3.30pm at Churchill Park in Lautoka.
