Anytime you play schools from higher leagues, they're preparing us for our league. We've played some really good teams. I would like to play those teams at home sometimes for my own feelings that if we could do that, we could be competitive with them. Playing at home and not having to travel is a plus.

The key factor that probably constrained confidence was the 4 per cent jump in petrol prices in the last week before the survey.

Their non-conference schedule (was) equal to ours. The majority of people at our level, you can throw out the first 10 or 12 games. It's a little unrealistic.

I'm just glad to be home next week. I'm not going to guarantee a win because that would be silly, but it will just be nice to have all those things that home brings.
