Very , they are at home BUT it’s not really home it’s Suncorp , they are down on stars but have been playing well, it’s a TV game , for a QLD side , that’s alarm bells.

BUT they are certainly beatable and we will have the bounce back factor.

Us by about 8 ( I think ).
Yeah, it's another mystery game.
One of 3 results
Big win to us, or
Big win to them,or
A high scoring Titansesque seesawing type of game where the last try wins.

I think they other way phins defence and hang in there style game plan will frustrate us

This really is the definition of a 50/50 game
Could go either way

Plus the other factor phins vs cowboys was a taxing game hot humid weather last week could make the phins vulnerable
 
Player for player, we should have more talent and handle them easily - especially given the players they have missing. But they play better as a team than we do, with a simple gameplan they follow to a T. I have a feeling that will give them the edge, but you never know with this team.

As long as we dont see the Supercoach doing a jig in the sheds again, I couldnt handle it. I am surprised the media havent brought up the supposedly bad blood between him and Seibold again, then again it is only Tuesday

I doubt it’ll be a big win , option 3 more likely.

We can score plenty , but struggle to keep sides out !!

Phins just have to follow every other teams game plan to make it tough for us.

Quick play the balls and exploit our poor defence/defensive reads out wide. Isaako may score a hat-trick.

Question is can we outscore them?

The Phins have most of their dominant players out but they are still dominating on the field because their coach has them well drilled
Can we out score them ?
If we match them drill for drill we can

Number 1 son is taking me to the game, I hate Suncorp, feeling nervous about this one, could go either way and I hate last play thrillers its not good for my heart. Bennett will be well prepared and so will the Finns

Seibold has to fix our struggling defensive structure
He is the had coach and his head is the first to get chopped off if we keep starting to capitulate
This is nature of the NRL Brutal Results Oriented Beast

Your son is a great kid thinking of you and taking you to the game
Suncorp is a great amphitheatre to watch the footy
I hope we can match the Fluent Finns drill for drill and come up with a thrilling win for you @QLDSeaeagle
 
So the last time we put in a disaster of a performance vs the Dragons we bounced back nicely with a big win vs the Panthers and our goal line defence was very solid. Although that one was at home which helped our cause.

Hopefully the trend continues and we bounce back nicely this week and bring our A game defensively vs the Dolphins.

Our boys have a hell of alot to prove after such a humiliating defeat at home against a very inexperienced and depleted side. No matter what they do they just have to turn up and be prepared to atleast match it with the Dolphins up the middle and get the job done. Win ugly, win pretty just get the valuable 2 points ffs and keep in touch with the top 4.

Actually we would leap frog the Dolphins and move into 4th. Our 3 toughest games of the season will be coming up after this. Our entire season could slip away in 4 weeks if we don't sort out our **** right now!
Yes, we are in a cluster of teams from 4th-9th so really need to start fast and bring our weapons against a very good football team.
 
Well, Karl, given that beating a second-string Raiders team on our home ground proved too tough a challenge for us even with a 20-nil head start, it's not surprising that an away game against a second-string Dolphins outfit will also be problematic.

Too soon?
