 The NRMA Insurance Western Sydney Wanderers train at their home ground per tech stadium ahead of their Friday night clash with the Brisbane Royal. Brisbane, who sits second in the Hyundai A-League, just two points behind the Wanderers, are going to be a tough test for Western Sydney, something the squad is relishing. You look forward to the big games against the quality opposition. Brisbane are a very good side and coming off a very good win against another very good side in Melbourne victory. It's something we're looking forward to very much. As a footballer you should look forward to these games. It's a great stadium, a great pitch and you're up against a very good team. As a footballer, they're the days that you can't wait for. Although the Wanderers boast a 100% record against the Royal, both player and manager know stats mean nothing in games like this. Obviously we're confident at the moment because we're playing well but in regards to last year that's done in dust, it means nothing now. Squad's are different, the game's quicker, it's totally different in last season. Well that doesn't guarantee you get a result, it doesn't guarantee anything for tomorrow night or looking forward but you know you go into games confident knowing that the boys are physically and mentally ready to give everything they can to get another result. Tipped at the start of the season as two of the league's favourites, both manager and player are quick to extinguish any title decider just yet. It's just important to try and get points at this stage. We don't talk about number one position here, it'd be a problem if we're focused on that after six games. A battle for the minor premiership already, you can't really say that, it's early doors, a couple of losses put you back down mid-table. Look, we're concentrating on this week and this week only and then we'll start looking at the latter a bit later on in the season. Dutch midfielder Yusef Hersey has not yet fully recovered from his knock against Sydney FC and is unavailable for tomorrow's match at Suncorp Stadium but is close to much fitness. He won't come in, he's trained very hard this week, he's trained well but we're not, he's not quite right to play so he'll just do a light day today and then probably start training hard again tomorrow Sunday and get him ready for next week. He's a quality player and he's very important to our squad, not only football wise and what he brings on the field but off the field he's very entertaining and keeps the boys in a good mood. With the Western Sydney Wanderers on top of the table and unbeaten, they are quickly becoming the team to beat this campaign. Oh maybe, that's a way of looking at it but psychologically, I'm not sure, I think for us it's just the key is our performance you know and we haven't had an easy game to date, there are no easy games in this league and you have to be on your game to get points in this competition, it's a very even competition and we know we have to do that again tomorrow otherwise we'll get nothing from the game. I think everyone just wants to beat us now. The teams are starting to firing up against us no matter what every week, teams seem to lift and play well against us especially when they come here they get that atmosphere that everyone wants to play in front of so every game is tough for us and I'm sure Brisbane being the quality side that they are is going to be another tough one.
