Norths’ head coach Pat Byron says his side’s ability to overcome adversity will need to be at the forefront of their performance against the winless Sunnybank at Biggs Oval on Saturday.

“We’re probably not where we want to be,” Byron told Rugby News.

“We’ve played patches of some good footy, but unfortunately had some lapses where we concede a lot of points in a short amount of time.

“The most frustrating thing is we’re playing fifty odd minutes of good rugby every week, but unfortunately twenty to thirty minutes of pretty ordinary stuff.
