EDINBURGH newcomer Matt Williamson is confident of success at his former home track Workington tonight (Saturday).
The Monarchs head to Derwent Park for their Championship Shield opener, after Friday’s scheduled clash at Armadale was called off.
Williamson, who joined Edinburgh over the close-season, said: “I had a great time at Workington but we have moved on to pastures new now, and it would be nice if we can go there and win. I think we can.
“Obviously a lot of the boys are really experienced and they do know a lot themselves, but as I have had a season at Workington I can always tell them what I’ve found and offer help if they need it.”
Meanwhile Berwick host Glasgow keen to avenge a 54-36 defeat at Ashfield on Friday in a match which was a good deal closer than that scoreline suggested.
The Bandits will take a fitness check on reserve Jye Etheridge, who hurt his wrist in a second-ride crash.
Boss Scott Courtney said: “We look forward to reversing the result tonight at Shielfield Park as we were really a lot better than an 18-point defeat which didn't reflect the match in reality.
“Jye has hurt his wrist in his crash, but we'll wait to see how he feels on Saturday before deciding what happens, but we certainly wish him well.”
