This is going to be a very tough fixture against a strong Ealing side.
We need to start well and impose our game plan on them to get the mennaye crowd in full voice.
It's a huge challenge but all we ask is that we see a response from the squad after the disappointment of last week's heavy defeat at Coventry.
