“We’re approaching every game the same and there will still be things we can take out of this game regardless of whether we win or lose,” he said.

“For us it’s about the growth aspect and continuing to improve each game.”

Despite the Rollers being slated to play both QBL bottom two sides in their final two games, Eustace doesn’t believe the soft run will compromise the club’s playoffs preparation.

“It’s such a short season that you have to play every game on its merit and gain something from every game,” he said.

“I think we’d say we gain more from losses more than wins.”

The lady Rollers play tonight at 6pm at Carrara Indoor Stadium followed by the men at 8pm.
