IAN Davies says he wants his Cornish Pirates side to get in the correct frame of mind for the remainder of the 2014/15 season.

On Sunday, the team host Doncaster Knights at the Mennaye and have named three changes to their starting squad from last week's defeat at Moseley.

These alterations see Alan Paver, Alex Cheesman and Max Bodilly replace Jamal Ford-Robinson, Jake Parker and Mike Pope.

It will be the fourth time this season the Pirates and Knights have clashed, with the Yorkshiremen picking up two wins, including a shock comeback from 30-10 down to win by a single point at the Mennaye in the British & Irish Cup on December 6.

Davies said: "Having learnt through bitter defeat that Doncaster will play and battle from the first whistle to the last, we need to match that mindset on Sunday but it is something we have struggled to do all season.

"We are though determined to rectify this in our remaining matches, starting this weekend."
