Today’s game (March 18) is the biggie, writes Player Coach Rob Dignum.

Sils v Lions for the third time this season, on this occasion to contest the RFU Midlands Intermediate Cup Final.

Having beaten them twice already in the past few months, the psychology stacked against us stinks.

They need no further motivation to get one over on us, at theirs and with over half of their backline returning, absent from our battle with them a fortnight ago, they will provide a steep hurdle indeed in our season’s aspirations.
