THE Fiji Airways Drua side has the chance to extend its lead at the top of the National Rugby Championship table if they beat Brisbane City today.

After the 40-17 drubbing of Melbourne Rising last week, the Fiji Drua goes into today’s match as favourites.

On the other hand, Brisbane City will be out for redemption after being thumped 47-28 by Western Force last weekend.

All eyes will be on the Fiji Drua halves pair of Frank Lomani and Alivereti Veitokani as they look to continue with their scintillating form they had in the opening round.

The traveling Brisbane City side will be no walkover with the likes of former Wallabies Quade Cooper and former Tabadamu wing Emori Waqa leading the charge.

The Fiji Drua takes on Brisbane City at 3pm at Lautoka’s Churchill Park.
