“Undoubtedly we would have liked to have finished higher, but the club is ambitious and I anticipate great things will follow. We will continue to work hard and hopefully we will reap what we sow.

“I’ve got to give big credit to the coaches, S&C [strength and conditioning team] and physios for investing so much time in me, and hopefully I’ve gone some way to acknowledging that support.”
