A word from the Coach, Vanessa Foliaki:
"Finals footy is exciting, but it's built on the little things done right and consistently. We need to fix our errors, complete our sets and stay disciplined if we want to win. It's not about doing anything special, it's about doing the basics better than the team in front of us."
