Coach quotes
On this weeks opposition, Peet said: “It’s a fantastic squad they’ve brought together, a good blend of size, skill and flair. They score fantastic tries and they’re good to watch, you can see what Brett is trying to instil there. They have a good blend of structure and off-the-cuff play with Jake, there’s plenty of threats but ultimately it’s judging ourselves on our own standards, expectations of one another and quite simply you can have the best preparation or game plan but as we found out last week, if you don’t turn up ready to go then it’s irrelevant.”
