And with European fixtures on the horizon the South African believes the Warriors, last year's PRO12 finalists, have matured into a side capable of producing performances on the biggest stages.
"It is great to get back to winning ways after a disappointing week against Edinburgh," he told the Herald.
"The best teams in Europe and the world are the ones that get knocked back and then go forward again. Hopefully we can get back on track for the rest of the season in Europe and the PRO12.
"I want to win silverware with this club. I've been here six years. First, I've got to make it into the team, but I look forward to these big occasions because I like playing in big games. I want to make history for Glasgow.
"I think we can deal with pressure better now. We made it to the semi-finals and final in the PRO12 and now it's about taking one step further and getting to the knockout stages in Europe.
"I think we are a more experienced team who can deal with that pressure. Guys don't get flabbergasted by the big occasions now. Everyone wants to play in these games so we're looking forward to it."
