FALCONS UNDER-18 TEAM NEWS
The Falcons will be looking to start where they finished off last weekend, with a flurry of tries in the final ten minutes, although academy manager Mark Laycock is not underestimating the challenge that lies ahead.
He said: “Leeds Carnegie will be a tough team to play against, Yorkshire sides always are. What we have to do is prepare well individually, concentrate on ourselves and believe in our ability.”
