We mustn't get overawed by the occasion of playing at Twickenham this Sunday in the final of the Anglo-Welsh Cup.

Leicester are an opposition like any other, although a very good opposition to be fair.

Leicester are a great side and Pat Howard is a great coach there

But we need to go up there and play our own game, concentrate on what we're good at and put them under pressure by being as good as we possibly can be.

It wasn't the prettiest performance by us last Saturday when we faced Munster in the Magners League.

There were a lot of reasons for that, but I don't think you can be 100% all the time - and we still won.

Last weekend we were resting a few players and had a few injuries and sickness problems to deal with.

But we played very well in the Anglo-Welsh semi-final win over Cardiff Blues and we're obviously targeting the final on Sunday.

I'd like to think that if we play the same way we'll lift the trophy against Leicester.

We really got stuck into Cardiff as there's always that local derby rivalry, but there's always that Welsh-English rivalry as well.

We need to play that open, expansive sort of game and really get stuck into Leicester in the forwards.

That's the key because we've got the backs: Sonny Parker, James Hook, Shane Williams.

Those sort of guys will do the job if we take the Tigers on up front and try and dominate there.

Leicester are a great side, they've been in lots of finals, Pat Howard is a great coach there and they've got some very good players.

It should be a very even match but with two different styles of play.

With the good weather we're having this week I'm expecting a great, expansive game from us.

The sun and longer days have also helped everything start kicking off on my allotment, as coming out of winter there's not a lot in there apart from seedlings.

For me, being down there and planting a few things is the perfect preparation for a big game.

It helps me chill-out and get away from things, as I found years ago that if you think too much about a game you over-hype yourself up.
