Matt Everard: Worcester coach lauds “special” Warriors after play-off win

Advertisements

Worcester rebuilt a squad from scratch last summer and have already begun recruiting heavily for next season.

The club have also had plans approved for a major redevelopment of their Sixways home, but needed a final-day win over Chinnor to claim the final play-off spot, finishing 40 points behind Ealing.

“I think it’s special, and I think it’s different,” Everard added.

“You don’t have many teams that have gone and then come back again, so what we’re doing is unique and special in sport and in rugby, and it is for the fans as well.

“To have something they care about so much taken away and then come back and cheer them on in semi-finals like today is very unique and very special.”

Everard insists that, as in the semi-final, they will go into Sunday’s final as the underdogs against Bedford who finished the season in second, 10 points clear of the Warriors.

“Bedford have beaten us twice this season, it’s at their place so they’ll be out-and-out favourites, but we have a lot of belief in the group.

“We’re going to give it absolutely everything, like we’ve done all season.”
