Coaches Quotes
Following a positive few weeks for his Women’s side, Denis Betts looks ahead to Sunday’s fixture against the Giants: “They had a bad day, we had a really good day and I don’t think it’ll be that kind of scoreline again on Sunday afternoon. I’m expecting us to turn up with a lot of ambition and determination and get a result.”
