Fiji Airways Drua outside center Poasa Waqanibau and utility back Enele Malele have been ruled out of the National Rugby Championship campaign after suffering injuries against Brisbane City last weekend.

The Drua team departed for Australia today to play their first away match against NRC defending champions Queensland Country on Saturday.

Captain Mosese Voka says the team is in high spirit and is looking forward to winning their third straight NRC match in the weekend.

He says Coach Senirusi Seruvakula is likely to make few changes to the starting line-up when names his run-on team by Friday.

The Fijian Drua takes on Queensland Country at 5pm at BB Print Stadium in Brisbane, Australia on Saturday.
