Droasese was also in the sights of NRL scouts after an outstanding Junior Rugby World Cup with Fiji.

The former Fiji Under-20 rep moved to Brisbane in 2018 and played colts for Wests and also Queensland Country U-19, before he was selected the following year for Brisbane City in the National Rugby Championship under Reds assistant coach Jim McKay.

He was named the Youth Player of the Tournament at the 2018 Fiji Coral Coast 7s winning the Lote Tuqiri medal.
