In a week where Welsh rugby saw another two players depart the World Cup training squad, the nation they'll face first in France later this year was having something of a more enjoyable seven days.
For Fiji, the week began with Semi Radradra and Seta Tamanivalu tearing up Twickenham last week for the World XV and Barbarians respectively. More than a few journalists leaving the stadium last Sunday noted that Warren Gatland's side might have a tough time ahead in Bordeaux on September 10.
Now, a week on, Fijian Drua have made history as they reached the Super Rugby play-offs after hammering the Queensland Reds 41-17 in Suva. That guaranteed them a quarter-final place, where they'll face either the Chiefs or Crusaders.
