Coach Comments - Leon Latulipe
We’re looking to bounce back from last week's disappointing loss.
We have some new additions to the squad this week and I hope they make the most of the opportunity.
I think we learnt a few lessons last week which we hope to fix on Saturday. We know it will be a tough game at Lidcombe and we look forward to the challenge.
