"We've got a strong squad this weekend although we are missing inside centre and team manager Chris Mabbott, who has been in phenomenal form for us this season so he is a big big loss.
"In come big Les Langkilde, James Leach and Ian Williams into the forwards though, who will add extra weight against a big BP pack.
"BP historically are a very forward orientated team so we expect a big battle up front.
"If our pack is firing on all cylinders then I expect them to secure our backs some quick ball."
