"We're expecting a team stacked full of big-game players who have been in these situations when they've got to come away and win.
"We know we're going to have to be on form to stop them and we're going to have to try to stop their momentum.
"We know they will want to play a territory-based game with the nine and 10 they've got.

"Everything we do in our game, even though we play with a lot of width and we play a lot of fancy stuff, if we lose the physical battle in attack and defence, we tend to lose games anyway or certainly get dragged into a dogfight.
"We need to make sure we dominate that physical battle and that can make life much easier for us when we want to play and in defence."
