With their last game just days away, Ratave has so far scored six tries and he says he wants to add another on Saturday.

“I promised them back them that I’ll be the top try scorer for the Fijian Drua, for me whenever I play I always make an effort or will try to score because if I don’t, I won’t be satisfied and it doesn’t feel right”

Ratave is expected to come off the bench against the Chiefs on Saturday at Churchill Park in Lautoka.

The game kicks off at 3pm and you can watch it LIVE on FBC Sports channel on the Walesi platform.
