Notes
Quotes from Director of Rugby, Jake White.
“The challenge for us is to focus on getting a result against the Highlanders. We go away the next day, it’s our last home game for a long while and we have to keep the momentum going, whether it’s the Highlanders here or the Rebels the following week.
“New Zealand rugby has always been strong. They are a good team, they have some good players, Ben Smith and Aaron Smith are probably the two form players in New Zealand, and have been for the last couple of seasons, not just this year.”
