London Irish: Tikoirotuma knows final will be a big challenge

London Irish's Asaeli Tikoirotuma is hoping to beat Yorkshire Carnegie to gain promotion.

The Exiles face Yorkshire Carnegie in the first leg of the Championship play-off final on Wednesday evening, before the return leg on Wednesday 24th May.

"Playing up there is not easy," Tikoirotuma told Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Berskhire's Adam Williams. "Playing at night, and if it is wet, it's going to be tough for us.

"We're doing everything we can in our power to overcome what they are going to bring to us."

And Tikoirotuma says it is not just the physical side of London Irish's game which needs to be at its peak come the final.

"This week we've been having lots of down time, and just getting the mental side ready and prepped for this weekend.

"It's just about sharpening up little stuff to get it right for game day."
