Quote from Coach, Lyn Jones
"I am sure Caerphilly will be competitive, but I expect them to be an even
stronger and better organised side with Mark Ring now fully in charge of coaching.
Last season they conceded and scored a lot of points, so our defence will be
as important as our attacking game. We are looking for big performances from
Adrian Durston and Andy Newman in particular, who both make their competitive
debuts for the club tomorrow evening"
