Big one this week - great opportunity to put a marker down for the second half of the season and take top place in the table.
Selection has been tight as ever this week - make sure you do right by those who have missed out.
Meet at 11:45 in the bar for a 14:00 KO. Keep the changing room focussed and remember structured feedback through Richie and I - limit number voices and long talk
The Game
OVs have a big pack and a strong midfield. In our previous meeting they hit the wide fringes hard with big runners and offloaded well to get in behind us. They scored on at least one occasion by getting there big pack close in mauling distance.
How we need to play
-play with tempo to tire their big pack
-need quick action on maul defence
-organisation and line speed especially inside 10
-double tackles to prevent offloads
