“They cause you a lot of problems with their physicality, energy and honesty. I really like them as a team.
"I’m excited because it’s a good test for us – I see all those things from my team in the last couple of games. It’s a good one for us to test ourselves against a team of similar traits.
“They’ve got good players, a good manager and a good coach [Richie Barker] who I know well.”
