"Lois has had 100 per cent confidence that we would be going to the Grand Final and will be winning it.York head into the Grand Final on home soil at the LNER Community Stadium as favourites after claiming the League Leaders' Shield with an unbeaten record. Leeds were too strong for York in the 2022 Grand Final but Butcher believes the pressure is on the Valkyrie."For us, I don't think we've played our best this year at home. We're playing better rugby away.
"It may put a bit more on York being at home. They'll want to put on a really good performance for their fans."Our focus is on us. It doesn't really matter where we play. We need to get the job done on the day."
