Cheika embracing challenge of Tigers' reputation
Written by I Dig Sports
The former Australia head coach said it is hard to get a gauge how good Leicester can be until the new season begins.
I need to get on the ground, you need to be competing with those teams to understand the league, he said.
Cheika, who led Irish side Leinster to a European Champions Cup victory against his new club in 2009, will take charge of his first game away at Exeter Chiefs on 21 September.
Ive been in the Celtic League - now the URC - the Top 14, which I havent mastered, and now the Premiership is something I want to master," he added.
