The Fijian Drua secured a thrilling 33-28 victory against the Brumbies at GIO Stadium. Nick Frost opened the scoring with a try for the Brumbies, converted by Ryan Lonergan. However, the Drua quickly responded with a flurry of scores, including two tries from Manasa Mataele and a try from Issak Fines-Leleiwasa, all converted by Isaiah Armstrong-Ravula. The Brumbies fought back with a try from Ollie Sapsford and two more from Tane Edmed and Corey Toole, keeping the match tight. A yellow card for Drua's Isikeli Rabitu briefly turned the tide, but the Drua held their nerve. Despite strong performances from Lonergan and Edmed for the Brumbies, the Drua's resilience proved decisive. The victory marked the Drua's second consecutive win over the Brumbies this season.
