This weekend Steelers are in Belfast and Cardiff and Nelson is expecting a testing time: “It is going to be two tough games for us, but we’ve had a good week of practice and we’re ready to go.
“We’re focussing on the Belfast game and then, when Sunday comes around we will be itching to get a win in Cardiff.”
