The defensive frailty was perhaps understandable given the amount of work Drua were being asked to do. Fijian Drua, meanwhile, can quickly turn their attention to a much-anticipated clash with fellow new boys Moana Pasifika next weekend.

As Gibson surged to the Drua’s 22, Rayasi found Tyler Laubscher, and offloaded to Goosen for his second try of the match. Hurricanes won another lineout in the 17th minute and shifted left, where Moorby set Rayasi to score in the corner, Proctor scored another try just minutes after. The conversion was however unsuccessful. Drua won the lineout in their own half in the 7th minute but the Hurricanes turned it over. The Hurricanes struck early in the second half winning a lineout and shifting right, where Aidan Morgan provided the overlap for Wes Goosen to score at the corner. It was Joshua Moorby who opened the scoring for the Hurricanes from a set-piece in the 14th minute combined with a series of passes cracking the Fijian Drua defence.
