While not at full strength, with Oscar Sykes and Charlies Callaghan out, coming off back-to-back wins the university side has some continuity in their ranks.

Coach Will Mitchell expects they will need it come up against a Leeton outfit coming off their first loss since 2016 on Saturday.

“We’re looking forward to the challenge,” Mitchell said.

“Our footy is improving week-by-week and while it is going to be hard to get one over them we are just excited to play some of the footy we want to against those big guys.”

Mitchell is looking for his team to have plenty of patience if they are going to come away with the win.

“Patience with and without the ball,” he said. “Obviously they can attack from anywhere and don’t need to build phases to score so you just have to be really switched on defensively and hold the ball for longer periods of time.”
