COACHES COMMENTS ON THE MATCH

The boys are looking forward to getting back into league action this weekend after a very disappointing final result versus Ayr in the cup, having been in the lead for large parts of the match. Watsonians are clearly in better form since our last meeting having won three of their last four matches, so we know we face another stern test. I think it’s safe to say the conditions will be better at the weekend than they were at Millbrae a couple of weeks ago. Myreside is always in good condition so its set up to be a cracking game of rugby.
