The Cheetahs are ready to rumble against French giants Perpignan in the EPCR Challenge Cup, says tighthead prop Robert Hunt,
Robert Hunt says the Cheetahs are cracking their necks and rolling their shoulders in preparation for the showdown against a powerful French pack when they take on Perpignan on Sunday to launch their EPCR Challenge Cup campaign.
“We look up to the Springboks for inspiration, but we also study the French approach. They’re typically heavy, strong, and technically skilled, so it’s a great challenge for us. Our focus is on refining our systems, ensuring cohesion and committing fully to our approach. It’s all about finding the right balance and learning to adapt to their strengths.”
“We’ll adapt as needed, and I don’t think it’s a major concern,” he said. “It’s just about adjusting quickly.”
