Players were put through their paces in a session that lasted approximately two hours, under the watchful eyes of the coaching group and fitness staff.
A number of different drills were on the training bill, with skills both in the clear and under pressure the focus.
The players were also split into two groups, with each split into two teams to participate in competitive drills against one another, in different areas of the ground.
The group also worked on their touch in tight, to ensure fumbles are kept to a minimum when the heat is on in the matches on Saturday night.
