Swire Shipping Fijian Drua coach Mick Byrne says the main thing they are focusing on this week is to get across the line.
Byrne says they need to get their players in the game early and carrying forward, and as always trying to create some one on one through their explosive outside backs.

He also says they need to get their game right especially the set-pieces.
The Drua coach says they saw an opportunity against the Waratahs last week and they have prepared a couple of plays for this week.
He says they know the Western Force bring line-speed as they try to get up in your face while you are defending.
Byrne says lots of teams do a bit of a fast game to try and get across the gain line bringing line-speed, but they are not going to deviate away from the aspect of playing a physical game.
The Drua will host the Western Force in their second double-header this Saturday with the Men’s team playing at 1.05pm and the Women’s game at 3.35pm at Churchill Park, Lautoka.
In other matches, the Crusaders host the Chiefs at 6.05pm Friday, the Waratahs play the Rebels at 8.35pm Friday, Moana Pasifika face the Blues at 3.35pm Saturday, the Highlanders play the Hurricanes at 6.05pm Saturday, the Reds meet the Brumbies at 8.35pm Saturday.
