Maybe they can get a little bit ill-disciplined so we'll try and play down their end of the park.

He'll probably need to play with just a bit more protection, I think.

The players are fresher both physically and mentally, but it's also given us an opportunity to do a bit of extra work on our conditioning and strength this week.

He's still struggling a bit with his neck and didn't train today (Thursday). We got an x-ray done and it came back pretty clear so we're hopeful he'll still be able to play. We hope to have him back on the training paddock tomorrow.

It's a bit of a domino effect. We'll wait and see what happens with Drew Mitchell, although I fear there may be some third-party offers that could lure him over to the Western Force.
