The Lions are aiming to put in a statement performance against a physical Section Paloise (Pau) in their Challenge Cup match-up at Ellis Park this evening (kick-off 5.15pm).
After a fantastic start to their season that saw them win four straight games in the United Rugby Championship, the Lions have gone off the boil a bit with three losses in a row, against Leinster and Munster in the URC and against Ospreys in their Challenge Cup opener.
They are targeting a return to winning ways back at home against the French visitors, but assistant coach Ricardo Loubscher admitted that they also want to make sure they put in a strong performance.
