TEAM boss Cami Brown admits it’s going to be a huge task to outgun high-flying Poole.
The Allied Vehicles Tigers go to Dorset to face the Pirates in the Cab Direct Championship tonight (Wednesday).
It’s only five days since Poole snatched a 46-44 win at Ashfield and Brown knows his side will need to produce something very special to get a good result.
He said: “There’s no doubt that Poole are the most in-form side in the league and firm favourites to regain their title.
“Since they returned to the second tier in 2021 they’ve won the title every year until we managed to stop that last October
“They have responded with another strong side and it’s up to everyone else to stop them.
“We are obviously still hurting from losing our unbeaten record at Ashfield to them on Friday night. There’s nothing worse than getting beaten on your home patch. It’s not something we are used to.
“We are naturally fired-up to do the same to them. But we will need every one of our boys to deliver a great performance.
“The one thing that has stood out this season about our team is the fighting spirit. We will need all that guts and attitude to get a result at Poole.”
