Much has been made of the
Firebirds’ start to the last Super Smash, and coach Bruce
Edgar is happy to have come out of the blocks strong this
year,
“We learnt a lot during that run at the start of last season and it’s really pleasing to see the guys put that in to practice and get the result against the Knights.
“That being said, we are well aware just how close this competition can be and the Volts offer a new challenge in Dunedin.”
The match against the Volts starts at 4:10pm on Sunday 17 December and will be screened live on Sky Sport.
