Ahead of the upcoming clash, the player added: "Teams that play us now are very motivated.
"But for us we have home ground advantage and we are looking to keep our momentum going. We don't want to slip up now, especially as things get close to the year's end.
"We know they (Orbit) are a very energetic side. They won't be so aggressive but will look to play on the country, they have speedy wingers. (But) we know what our strengths are and we are looking forward to taking advantage of their weaknesses."
