Marshall’s try gave the Highlanders a 27-24 lead, which was how the score remained in Suva on Saturday. The Drua attacked down the left wing and exposed the Highlanders several times in the first 25 minutes. The Highlanders’ cover could not reach him either, as he went untouched to score the Drua’s second try. It left the Highlanders trailing 21-10 — Gilbert had finished off a passage in the corner for a Highlanders try among all that — having leaked close to a point a minute. They mounted a lineout drive and Marshall touched down to give the Highlanders their first lead of the game.
