This is turning into a must win match for a number of reasons.
Firstly, with the weekend results going the way they have we are in danger of dropping out of the eight.
Secondly, it's a real test of the quality and character of the players stepping up to fill in for injuries etc.
Thirdly, I think a win today will go a long way to getting us respect from a number of clubs that are on a similiar number of points.
Lastly, I think it will determine whether there is a feeling within all levels of the club about whether we can crack the eight for the first time.
There is a real danger of this becoming another 2000 season today.
