The Rocks face Manchester Giants tomorrow in their first game since the Stirling-born forward quit the club to chase a lucrative move overseas.
Davis admits Achara's exit is a huge blow to his team's trophy hopes, but he will look for others to make their mark. "It's a huge loss for our team as it would be any team in the league," said the American. "[Achara] was able to bring so many different things to the table, but at the same time, that is done, so we have to keep improving within our group."
