Sydney’s Uni’s new first grade boss Phil Blake says the Students will “expand” on their game in subtle ways over the next month or so.

Blake has been handed the keys to a machine that is purring along nicely at the moment following the exit of Rob Taylor and he signalled that maybe not change, but refinement was on the agenda.

Taylor is off to coach in Japan at the NEC Green Rockets and Saturday will be the first test for both Blake and the playing group when they take on the defending premiers Gordon at Camperdown.

Weather may dictate what happens against the Highlanders but Blake told Rugby News he was excited for what lies ahead.
