FLY-half and playmaker Quade Cooper said the Rebels don’t need to change anything ahead of their encounter against the Waikato Chiefs at AAMI Park tonight and just need to believe in themselves.
According to The Roar, Cooper, who along with the Queensland Reds won the Super Rugby title in 2011, said the Rebels didn’t need to change anything to their game for tonight.
“For all the players to be able to be in this position, shows we’ve played some great rugby,” Cooper said.
He said the Rebels just needed to bring their best rugby.
