While a comfortable round 1 victory caught the eyes of many, Erindale College coach Jordan Macey knows his side can't rest on just one performance.
The 42-10 win over Illawarra Sports High School stamped Erindale as an early Peter Mulholland Cup title contender, with another win over St Dominic's on Wednesday a chance to further enhance their premiership credentials.
The round 2 matchup will be available live and exclusive on KommunityTV from 12.45pm.
'We are all pretty pumped to get back on the field,' Macey said of Wednesday's game.
'It was a good win first up but there's a few areas we want to improve on because St. Dominic's are a very good team, so it's going to be a good challenge.'
While stopping short of delving into the key areas of improvement spoken about behind closed doors, Macey was hoping they would also be able to replicate a lot of what worked against Illawarra.

'We're definitely not the biggest side in the competition, so we're just going to have to work really hard in the method areas and just staying connected as a group,' he said.
'I think we stuck to the game plan (against Illawarra), which was really good. And we are probably going to have to do that again to beat St. Dominic's.
'They've got a good team and they've got a good connection. I guess they all play a lot in that (Penrith) Panther system and they've got some really good individual players as well that we've identified and just have to make sure we do a good job on.'

Brumbies playing ‘two grand finals' to avoid ugly Super Rugby history

The Brumbies are looking to avoid an unwanted piece of history this weekend, as the first team in Super Rugby history to lose four successive semi-finals. The Canberra side have been knocked out at the final four stage the previous three seasons, and no side has failed on four consecutive occasions. So they're treating Saturday's semi against the Chiefs in Hamilton as the first of two grand finals. 'We're pouring absolutely everything into this one because we know we need to, because at the end of the day we fell short the last three years,' Brumbies lock Tom Hooper said. 'I think you take a lot of learnings out of the last three years, it's all been building to a head for a long time now. 'Obviously we've lost against the Chiefs earlier in the year (49-34 in Hamilton) and we took a lot of stuff out of that game that we needed to improve on, and we're looking to make sure we're putting that into practice this weekend. That game was, if you just look at the score, probably not really reflective of how tight that one was. 'For me, the grand final is this weekend. We've got two grand finals left and we're going to pour absolutely everything into it.' There is added incentive for Hooper to finish with silverware, given he is departing the Brumbies to join English club Exeter alongside teammate Len Ikitau. 'That's why I've been flogging myself on the weekend, I've been draining myself every week,' Hooper said. 'It's like driving down a highway. You don't need a full tank to make it to the end of the road. So the end of the road's coming up and I've filled up my tank this week, but I'm about to empty it again and I'll do it again next week. 'After that I'll just be filling it up with a couple of pina coladas somewhere, just relaxing after the season with the trophy in my hand.' While there has been criticism of the finals format given the Chiefs lost to the Blues last week and the Brumbies beat the Hurricanes, but the Chiefs get to host the semi-final given they finished first, Hooper dismissed any notion it is unfair. 'At the end of the day, we knew throughout the course of the season we needed to finish in those top two positions for that very reason,' Hooper said. 'Obviously, we fell short against the Crusaders. That means we have to go across the ditch and beat them on their home soil, which is nice. 'The Chiefs deserve it because they reaped the rewards of their hard work throughout the season. 'There's only 11 teams in this competition and they've obviously been the best team throughout the majority of the year. 'Even though they didn't have one of their better nights on the weekend against the Blues, they still deserve a home semi-final in my eyes because we should have done better throughout the season and we dropped a few games that we shouldn't have.'
