‘We’re gutted to have lost Owen but it’s up to us now to go and do what we need to do,’ said Wray. ‘With or without the lockdown break, this is the game we’ve been looking for.
‘With everything that’s gone on with us this season and losing Owen now and having to go over there, there is an element of being the underdog. We don’t mind that. Whatever comes, whether it’s bans, 35-point bans, 105-point bans, our environment only gets better. You either roll over or you get tougher.
‘No one’s particularly liked us that much over the years. We’re used to it.’
