Fitness has been first class in all our games so far,with a bit more speed around the play the ball we wiil become even more dominant.

The difference in fitness between the two sides tonight showed how far we've progressed since last season. Catalans were really blowing towards the end of the game whereas we looked like we still had some left in the tank.

Very promising indeed.

Fitness looks excellent, and our lack of fatigue is making our defence look really strong right to the end. Good signs.

Its why I kept calling for us to run the ball rather than take the 2 points in the second half. The cumulative effect of pounding their defence on their own line really helped us wear them done. Our fitness has been spot on so far and sometimes it can be the difference between winning and losing a close game.
