Titans ready for Nottingham clash

TITANS chief Andre Bester has promised that Rotherham will return to top form—hopefully starting tomorrow when they square up to rivals Nottingham.

And it could mean coming face-to-face with Sione Kalamafoni, who has just completed a five-week ban for being cited by the Titans following the controversial clash between the sides in September.

The big Tongan, who left Jonny Hepworth, Richard Welding and Rob O’Donnell in hospital after the game, was banned by RFU disciplinary chiefs for the challenge on Hepworth, which left the player needing emergency treatment on the pitch to clear his airway.

Kalamafoni has since then been sidelined, although there are doubts over whether he will be available. His suspension ended last week, but he didn’t feature in the Greens’ win at Plymouth last week.

gnoring the Kalamafoni issue, Bester wants his side to focus on the positives which came out of the second half of last week’s defeat against Worcester.

“There was a great fighting spirit from our team and we can kick on from there,” he said.
