We have a group of guys who believe they can match anyone in this league but all the margins are very tight.
We are keen to establish a settled unit.
We didn't play very well. It was an ugly win but we'll take the points.
We have named our team based on our pre-season friendlies and feel that it is a strong line up to take on Gloucester,
It is a huge, huge game for Leeds because following this game they have to go away to Leicester and Wasps. They are a tremendously committed team and we are under no illusions as to how much they will want to win this game.
We need to improve as an all-round team, which we're working hard to do,
We would expect to win that game and by a good margin, too. We have done that, but there is room for improvement in our performance - we'll have to be better in Montpellier and Bristol.
We probably took 30 minutes to believe we could actually beat Gloucester.. You can't waste half an hour against them and find yourself 6-0 down.

Saracens are widely tipped for a top-four spot this season, and we always welcome the opportunity to benchmark ourselves against quality opposition -especially at Sixways.
