Dragons centre Ashley Smith says the Men of Gwent have plenty to play for the Heineken Cup Round 5 match down in Toulouse this Saturday.
Smith said: “It’ll be a tough game, but all the boys are looking forward to it. It was an exciting experience the last time we went out there are we’re looking forward to doing it again. They’re a very good team, with a stand-out player in every position, but we want to put in a performance and build on the win against Connacht and the bonus point at the Scarlets.
“Our performance was good in patches against Connacht. We showed a greater intent to attack but with that mistakes always creep in. Hopefully it’ll pay off and we’ll get stronger in the run-in to the end of the season.
“Everyone’s written us off on Saturday, but it does put us in a great position where we can go over there, play some good rugby and hopefully give them a scare. There’s still plenty to play for. The Toulouse team is littered with stars, and it’ll be a tough afternoon. No one’s given us a chance, but we certainly don’t see it that way.”
