Gold Coast SUNS Assistant Coach Andy Lovell in the lead-up to the side’s Round 17 contest against the Eagles.
"They're a proud club and their coach is a fiercely competitive person so we go over and know we're going to face a really tough team and tough game.

Eagles senior coach John Worsfold spoke to reporters on Wednesday, and was hopeful he would welcome back a handful of senior players for the clash against the SUNS on Saturday afternoon.
