“It’s been pleasing to get the lads back – they’ve brought a freshness into the group,” said Parker. “Fresh eyes, fresh energy – which can only be of benefit.
“They loved their time with their respective countries, but they return fully focused on the battle that lies ahead for us now. It’s been good to have them back.”
