Jessica Broadrick spoke to RedTV to preview the game, to watch in full, please click here.

“The result against Rangers last week was a tough one to take. It is always about learning in these games, we knew it was going to be tough. The sides that we are playing now are really tough opposition. The players in the Rangers side are all internationalists. I was gutted and disappointed in myself. It is only something that we can build on, we have to just keep on working.

“When we look at Hibs as a side, we can defiantly compete with them. We will be going out there, hoping for a good performance both individually and as a collective group. We have got a point to prove, we have come off an 8-0 defeat but it is time to show what we can do.

“We always talk about being a side that can utilise every single player in our side. If a player goes out, then another one comes in, the skill and talent level in our team is amazing. We have got young players like myself and older players such as Kelly Forrest and Carrie Doig. The mix of experience and youth works well. Everyone that comes in has done an amazing job. We have been without our captain Kelly Forrest and Bayley Hutchison who have been big losses for our side. We haven’t complained once and just got on with it.”

Jenna Penman also previewed Sunday’s game, to watch in full on RedTV, please click here. 

“We know Rangers are a good side and have international players in their team. I don’t think anyone is focusing on that too much. We are looking forward to the important game we have on Sunday and moving forward and keeping our heads high. We have improvements to make and hopefully we can do that on Sunday.

“There a lot of things for everyone to work on, individually, as a team and as a coaching staff. We will all stick together, work together and move on as a team.

“The coaches bring a good competitive side into training which gets us all up for it. Hibs will be a hard game and we can push for it. It will be a good fight with both teams really wanting it.

“They are good opposition. We played them in a pre-season friendly a while back. We know there a good side, we have grown and so have they. It will be a good clash to see who comes out on top.”
