Danger game, but only if we let ourselves down psychologically. On skill level, we should win this game easily.

I am also pretty worried about this one. 2-3 weeks ago they started getting back some of their better players who will be match fit etc.

I cant think they will tank a game vs us.

The big worry for me is until Rocca and Taz start kicking 6-7 goals btw them per week anyside could go alright vs us. Also worried about Davis and Thomas being out as they are the 'something special' players that are so unpredictable.

I suspect if we show up with the same intensity as last week we wil be ok though. Thats the problem though, we've seen their best and their worst all in the last month.

Out Thomas, Licuria
In R.Shaw, B.Davies

We must go for the jugular at the first bounce, and play relentlessly for FOUR quarters. None off this stepping off the gas in the second half. We simply MUST win and win WELL for us to finish top four by seasons end.

I too am nervous about this game. We should win, but you never know...

Who ran with Hird on Anzac Day? He was pretty quiet. Only really popped up in the final quarter I think. Whoever it was, gets the job again if I was coach. But I'm not!
From memory, it was Dutchy. But I'm not 100% on that...

Correct, copped a suspension for attempting to think about possibly considering the chance of striking Hird too.
