Carmarthen – Cardiff team news

Cardiff travel to Carmarthen on Saturday in the Indigo Premiership in the first of a run of three away games.

Speaking ahead of the game Head Coach Steve Law said “we will be looking to follow up on an honest and hard working performance from last week, but know it will be different to playing at the Arms Park. We will need to be prepared for a change of surface and a smaller pitch this week and will need to get our away mindset right.

We will need to make sure our work ethic is correct and look to get things right in the contact area. That will build on the last two games and hopefully result in an improved performance. There are quite a few changes this week, most of them forced. This shows a lack of synergy at the moment, but there is plenty of talent out on the pitch and we are looking forward to the challenge of the Quins away”
