Ex-internationals Lote Tuqiri and Nemani Nadolo have condemned the Super Rugby organizational failures that led to the Fijian Drua squad traveling more than 300 kilometers (about 185 miles) in a lugga

Lote Tuqiri has joined Nemani Nadolo in slamming Super Rugby Pacific's "unacceptable" mistreatment of the travelling Fijian Drua, the duo hoping such a "ridiculous" turn of events never happens again.

Super Rugby Pacific CEO Jack Mesley has addressed the concerns of the Fijian Drua after travel and accommodation issues blighted their recent away game against the Hurricanes in Napier.

The Fiji-born legend and dual Australian international also took aim at New Zealand’s “lack of hospitality” after learning the Drua were forced out of their hotel room in Napier, with nowhere to go and rest, several hours before playing the well-accommodated Hurricanes in round two a fortnight ago.

Former Fiji international Nemani Nadolo has slammed Super Rugby organisers after logistical foul-ups dogged the Fijian Drua on a recent trip to New Zealand to play the Wellington Hurricanes.

In scenes reminiscent of the 1987 film Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Drua players were forced to ride in the back of a truck from the airport to their hotel in New Zealand on a trip to play the Hurricanes.
