After an extended break, the best four sides of the 2021 Premier Rugby season will be given two weeks to prove why they should be crowned champions of another strange, strange rugby season.

Ahead of the opening semi finals next weekend, Rugby News caught up with all four coaches to get the inside word on their playoff preparations and see what they had to say about the other three finalists.

Next, we chat to GPS coach Shane Arnold.

How are things looking ahead of the finals?

“We’re looking not too bad. We finished before the break quite well against Uni but it’s been five weeks since that game,” Arnold told Rugby News.
