Despite winning their first match comfortably and being hailed as the big improvement story of the season, the Lions are not getting ahead of themselves.
“We have only won one game for the season and we know absolutely nothing about any of the other teams so it is hard to tell where we stand,” coach Will Bell said.
“We will look to improve on our team defence which is something we spoken a lot about this week.”
The boys really love playing footy at home
- Will Bell
The Lions will play in front of their home fans for the first time this season, an opportunity Bell said his side will relish.
“The boys really love playing footy at home,” he said.
“To be able to come off and into a club event is great.”
Great Western will be without new recruit and defender Justin Thomas, who will miss this week with a strain.
“The best thing about the situation we are in is that there are plenty of guys waiting for their opportunity who will fit right in at the senior level,” Bell said.
