Frank Hadden Against Quotations

Mike performed exceptionally well when he came on as a replacement against New Zealand.

I was very impressed with MacLeod's play against Wales when he came off the bench.

When you are away from home there is absolutely no substitute for experience. We are playing against a team that we have not beaten at Lansdowne Road for eight years.

We will go out and play rugby against France and we believe that we're capable of doing something very special.

Edinburgh have never won against Llanelli at Stradey Park but our intention this weekend is to turn that around.

You only had to hear the players talking about Andy Murray's victory in the tennis earlier in the week to appreciate how much they believe that Scotland can compete on a world stage. All these things add up. We are where we are in the rankings because of the limited nature of our resources. But what's important is to believe that when we go out against the big guns of world rugby, such as England, that we have a genuine chance of winning. And we do.
