Rathgormack bid to become the first Waterford club to reach the Munster Senior Club Football Championship Final in eight years this afternoon.
They face a tough task at Fraher Field as they play host to Kerry champions Dr. Crokes.
The Comeragh men are back-to-back county champions following their success against Abbeyside Ballinacourty in the Conway Cup decider - and are hoping to reach a first Munster final in the club's history.
Kenny Hassett's side are looking for a vocal home support in Dungarvan for the 1pm throw-in - and he admits they'll need all the help they can get against two-time All Ireland and eight-time Munster champions.
"We're under no illusions. It's going to be a huge test. They're an excellent side, but we'll be hoping, we'll have good big support, I'm sure Crokes will as well, but we'll be hoping that the football fraternity around Waterford, that they'll come and give us a dig out and give us a cheer and get an atmosphere there. We'll be hoping 10, 15 minutes to go - we're still in the melting pot, I'd back my boys."
Rathgormack forward Billy Power will return from Dubai for the game - and Hassett says his commitment has been 'phenomenal'.
"That's Billy. He loves it, he loves being involved and like all the other players, they all see this as the next step, as the next challenge and they want this challenge and we know we're going to have to perform better against Dr Crokes than we have at any stage in the year, but that's the challenge that lads want to accept and that's the challenge that they want to go for."
Hassett also believes a break since that county final win could be to his side's benefit.
"We took 10, 11 days off just to refresh mentally and physically. Everybody needed a break. Lads needed a break from us and we needed a break from them and we've lads who have been with the county all year, they go straight into the hurling championship, then it's straight into the football championship. So that break, just to refresh mentally and emotionally was needed and in fairness to the lads, since we've come back, they've been at it, they've been keen to improve on what we did in Waterford and hopefully that'll show against Dr Crokes."
Throw-in is at 1pm and Tomas McCarthy will have live updates throughout on WLR.
