After four games, the Brumbies are sixth on the Super Rugby table with two wins and two defeats.

Fijian Drua Form
Fijian Drua have been good this season but only have one win to show for it in four games. They were close in all their games but ended on the wrong side of the score.
The Drua lost by four points in round one to the Brumbies before losing by the same margin at the Hurricanes in round two. In round three, Fijian Drua were defeated 29-24 in Sydney by the Waratahs.
However, last week, the Drua turned the tables, beating the then unbeaten Chiefs 28-24 at home. That will hopefully give the Fijians some confidence moving forward in the season.
