Notes
Quotes from Director of Rugby, Jake White.

“We had an extra day to prepare for this match [compared to last week], more time to plan and first playing second on the log is obviously a massive game. It’s irrelevant that I was there, or now I’m with the Cell C Sharks, the point is that in the 2014 competition, it’s number one playing number two.

“Like all teams, they’re very difficult to beat at their home ground. Historically, it’s been a tough place to win, but the nice thing is that a lot of these players were here two years ago when they came to Canberra [The Sharks won 29-26], so they’ve experienced the feeling of winning there already. We’re looking forward to seeing whether or not we can replicate what happened two years ago”.
