Coaches Quotes

Matt Peet spoke to the press earlier this week at Robin Park Arena.

The Warriors head coach said: “We’ve got an identity and a set of values that we hold highly. When we commit to that, play with a smile on our face, work hard for one another and look like a collected team, we’re a tough game for anybody.”

Peet added: “I love the idea of our supporters getting excited about the back end of the year and getting behind the team – we’ve got a duty to deliver performances.”
