Galette eyes Seattle Seahawks "revenge"

Galette eyes Seahawks "revenge"

New Orleans Saints outside linebacker Junior Galette has expressed his desire to get "revenge" on the Seattle Seahawks when they face them in the playoffs on Saturday.

The Saints were comfortably beaten on their last trip to CenturyLink Field, managing just 188 yards on offence as the Seahawks cruised to a 34-7 victory in week 13.

In preparation for their return this weekend, Saints coach Sean Payton put a giant Seahawks logo on both training pitches and pumped the crowd noise in to attempt to replicate the conditions that his side will come up against.

Galette admitted that the Seahawks were the best side in the conference at the moment, but is hopeful that they can make up for their previous loss and pull off something of a shock.

"It's a reminder daily that we know what we're up against. We feel like this is the best team right now in the NFC, and we'll see. We'll have to go up there and kind of have some revenge," Galette told reporters.

The Seahawks have only lost once at home so far this season and finished the regular campaign with a 13-3 record overall.
