Our ACT Brumbies return home to face the Drua following their inspired victory in Auckland. The match-up represents the second meeting of the two sides this season, with our Brumbies prevailing in difficult Suva conditions in round 1.

The home side will be desperate to secure their first home win of the season after an opening month headlined by travel.

With fly-half Noah Lolesio making his return from concussion, the scene is set for a heavyweight clash against the in-form Fijians.

Round 5 of the SMARTECH Super Rugby Pacific season marks Kids Round, so make sure to bring the family! With plenty of fun activities for kids, including an inflatable kid’s zone, Friday’s match promises to have something for everyone.
