“I love playing here at the Arms Park and we’ve enjoyed some really memorable wins. Hopefully we can get more of those moving forward.

”That Sale game will stay long in the memory for me, but so will wins over the likes of Stormers.

“It’s definitely an exciting challenge for us as a group. There will be some ups-and-down along the way, but hopefully the younger group can come through and grab the bull by the horns."
