A former Fiji rugby international has expressed concerns over the travel issues faced by the Fijian Drua during their recent Super Rugby Pacific match against the Hurricanes in New Zealand. The team's gruelling road trip to Napier's McLean Park highlighted the challenges of competing in the elite competition, with the Fijian Drua ultimately losing 38-34. The incident has sparked debate about the treatment of Pacific Island teams in the Super Rugby Pacific, with some calling for improved logistical support and resources for travelling teams, particularly in terms of sports travel and rugby news.
