"They’re playing some of the best rugby out of everyone in Super League, so we know we’re up for challenge.
"We’ve had two tough games against them already this year.
"They embarrassed us a bit at the Magic Weekend, and we had a tough result against them earlier in the year at the DW in some wet conditions.
"We’d like to get one back on them. We’re close in the league at the moment, so this is an important step of where we finish in the league this year.
"They’ve got a great spine who control the team very well.
"They’re a really strong club that’ll keep on growing.
