Jazz Tevaga has maintained his belief that Wakefield Trinity possess the best pack in Super League but struck a more measured tone ahead of Saturday's Grand Final against Warrington Wolves.

The forward has doubled down on his claim after ruffling feathers with his comments about Wigan Warriors' forwards in the build-up to Trinity's eye-catching semi-final victory, insisting he "knows" his side have the edge up front this week.

But Tevaga was quick to acknowledge the threat posed by Warrington's pack and key playmakers as Wakefield prepare for the biggest game in the club's modern history.

"I don't think, mate," he said with a smile when asked if he was confident Trinity would get over the top of the Wire forwards. "I know.

"Nah, it's going to be a good battle. They've got some weapons. We've got to watch out for Danny Walker, who's a nippy little fella, and George Williams is a class player. They've looked a lot better since he came back.

"We're going to have to be on our toes. It's going to be a good game.

"The occasion can get to you, I've heard, so we've got to do our best to feed off the energy but stay calm and focused on our roles."

Tevaga caused a storm last week when he declared that Wigan's pack had limited threats while championing his fellow forwards.

It proved to be an unintentional masterstroke as the Wakefield pack backed up his words in emphatic fashion.

"I obviously didn't expect a backlash to come from what I said," added Tevaga. "I wasn't being arrogant or cocky; it was more self-belief and confidence in the pack that we have. We proved it on the weekend.

"I definitely felt a bit of heat coming from some of the boys but that's all part of the game and is all fun. I love that sort of stuff.

"They sort of went a bit quiet towards the end of the game. There was a little tussle with Brad O'Neill but that's just part of the game. I was giving him a bit of stick but I told him after the game that I respect him as a player and that he's had a tremendous season. I can't wait to battle against him again.

"They should be proud of what they did this year – two out of three trophies isn't too bad – but I think it's our time."
