Norths’ winger Pauly Rakatau-Wiperi is confident that his side’s courage throughout the first half of the season will help in their contest with Souths at Chipsy Wood Oval this weekend.

“As a team, we're not doing too great but I feel like we’re getting better each week and we just need to play for the full eighty,” Rakatau-Wiperi told Rugby News.

The Eagles have been ravaged by injury to this point of the 2022 competition and languish at the bottom of the table without a win.

Coming off a much-needed bye, Norths’ will be confident they can secure their first victory against a Souths side they drew with in round one.
