The French team has a host of top internationals and has one of the biggest packs in Euriopean rugby, but Pat MacArthur says the Warriors are up for the challenge.
Speaking in the Herald, Pat said: "That's why you play, isn't it? To come up against these boys and have a shot at them. Going to Paris, is is a huge challenge, they are a classy outfit and a big bunch of boys. We are a tight-knit group though and we will go that extra mile for each other, that will be a big part of the game for us.
"We know it is all down to us to turn up, be disciplined and put the work into the game. France is a tough place to play, as a forward and as an away team it is a tough, tough place to go so it will be a good match to be involved in."
With internationals from five World Cup squads – plus Taqele Naiyaravoro who only just missed out on being there with Australia – Pat says the Warriors have the personnel to make an impact in Europe.
"A big part of the club is how close-knit our group is," Pat said. "There has been a lot of learning on the field and a lot of learning off the field to help one another so that when we have changes in personnel it does not affect us massively and we can gel and make a tighter unit. Europe is the next step. We give ourselves goals at the start of every season and that is one of the goals for his season – to make an impact in that area."
