Toyota Cheetahs Coach Frans Steyn: "I think we're heading into a block where it is really important for us to play well, and to take the points we can. We need to play well this weekend, build on our mistakes and performance from last week, and gain momentum."

"The next three weeks will be tough for the Toyota Cheetahs, but we are taking it one week at a time through hard work. We're busy building a good squad. We have a couple of great youngsters in the team with  a high work rate, and all the players' hard work is commendable."

Marco Janse van Vuren: "We've had a good prep this week, and we know that they are going to run the ball, so that we are awake and prepared to expect anything. Our performance against the Sharks wasn't great, but we are now looking forward to playing on our home ground."
