Exiles looking for another upset

Correspondent

Exiles Lance Hohaia and Iosia Soliola have both expressed confidence ahead of tomorrow’s game against England at Langtree Park.

Hohaia will be making his debut for the Exiles and knows it will be a tough encounter.

He said: “There is plenty to play for in this game, no one will be taking a backward step. It will be entertaining with the calibre players on show but I feel we can come out on top.”

His St Helens teammate, Soliola, was part of the Exiles team that upset England 16-12 at Headingley last year.

Centre Soliola said, “You have to go into every game with the confidence that the team will do the job. It will be a big challenge but we all have the faith in each other that we can do the job.”

This weekend’s game will be the first of two tests, with the second taking place on the 4th July at Huddersfield’s Galpharm Stadium.
