Pat Howard Game Quotations

But this is a big game and I expect big-game players to turn up. I'm sure he'll fatigue during the game at some stage, and we'll have to deal with that, but when he's on the field I know he'll give 150 per cent.

At 22-12 behind, I didn't think the game was gone. We knew that 10 points was in our reach, and the players really believed in themselves.

We've got a big game on our hands.

Everyone in life gets their opportunity somehow and you have got to take it. Tom has had a difficult couple of weeks. I have been giving him a very hard time and he has taken his opportunity with both hands. He said to me before the game he was going to play well and he backed it up.

It will be a physical game, but I hope it's a pretty clean game. Alan Lewis refereed our game against Clermont and we've been in contact with him. Any issues we raised he had seen already, so I expect him to be the professional he is.
