Everyone seems in good health, on top of the deck running. It's a good situation to be in. We've got the whole squad up and on the deck training so it's a good feeling to have everyone ready at the right end of the year. |
I asked the boys not to concede any more soft points in the second half and they didn't. That was good, and we didn't let it become a side-to-side-fest. |
I don't think it is a case of us playing for our season, but there is no denying we are playing for a quarter-final place in an important cup competition. |
I wasn't surprised by Brian at all today. I could see it in his eyes last week that he was up for this game. I have the advantage of seeing him every day at training but I knew something special was coming. There is still some improvement to come, as a player and a captain, but he is well on course after his injury. |
If he feels okay with that we'll pretty much know if he is going to be in the 22 or not. Obviously if he's fit we want him to play. |
In the two matches that we have played this season, Glasgow have challenged us. |
It's very important that we get it right (up front). |
The squad are obviously disappointed (after last weekend) but you can sense a feeling of resolve there also which is encouraging. We've got to make sure that we take something from the game and push on for the rest of the season. We need to front up when we don't perform well. |
We never developed any rhythm and that was because of the opposition. |
We've still got five games left to play in the pool. We've got to win them all, but we are not giving up. |
