    5 reasons why we will beat the Dogs

    ox and matai are expected to return, so i would think that'll bring the backline (especially bell and lyon) more into the game.

    5 reasons why we will beat the Dogs

    some fair points there crusher, biggest one is the last one. there was alot of hype surrounding the souths match, this one will slip under the radar i think (we need a better publicist). one big plus for them though is the return of omeley. here's hoping his form drops due to the contract...

    Crowd and Queues

    the queue to buy tickets was massive. i rocked up a half hour before kick off and from the front gates, the queue went all the way to the street. i got lucky and called a mate who was just buying his when i got there, but from what i heard, people were still in the queue until 20 mins after...

    After match feedback

    i missed the PL match on saturday, are there any forwards coming up worth giving a shot? i was keen to see afamasaga get a spot on the bench, but i have heard his PL has been poor. bryant and hall havent been doing much, so i wouldnt argue with them not being picked.

    Has the Man of Steel rusted ??

    considering our experiment to put him in six only last a few minutes in round one, i'm keen to see him get a run there too. both bell and lyon have been pretty quiet. once ox gets back, we'll see them get more action.

    Did Halden get any minutes at all?

    still suprised des keeps him on the bench. we have a flexible enough backline to cope with a mid game injury to a 6 or 7. next week's game agaionst the dogs will be tough and we need at the help up front we can get. another forward on the bench will be more useful.

    Battle of the packs

    totally agree. when monas did something, even if it was a poor option, he backed himself enough to chase hard or hit someone hard enough to make up for it. what he lacks in ability, he makes up for in guts. keen to have ox back, but monas has done a great job to plug the gap.

    Braybrook and Pearce

    hey, channel 9 have some dodgy commentators too! if i hear ben ikin say "believe you me" again, i'm going to pull my hair out. just have to live with it i guess.

    Has the Man of Steel rusted ??

    yeah, has hasnt really set the world on fire just yet, but he has been pretty solid considering our first choice 7 has a busted knee, ankle, leg or whatever it is. i think he'll fire up soon. the guy is the pommy dally m winner, so should be wowing everyone soon

    If I were Des:-

    des has never reall been one for flashy moves like this, so i doubt this would ever happen. monas has done a great job of plugging our gap at 7, so why let him go? ox might get hurt again, and monas slots pretty good in there. dont see the rooters letting go of toupu anyway. their halves...

    Another week, and we are still on TOP.

    great to see us winning 4 in a row! defence has been winning us games at the moment. we havent yet fully opened up the big guns we have in the backline, and they are just feeding off scraps at the moment. when ox is back and we can give the some quality service, we'll really be flying...

    Battle of the packs

    yeah,cleal is looking pretty damn fit. must be the haircut. funny. i am about as dyed in the wool as you can get, but i wasnt expecting to be thinking that we'll be running over the likes of omeley, mason and williams. looking forward to it!!

    Warriors

    fair point wheel, but they will put alot of points on us if we are flat for 60 minutes like last week, but i've seen alot of games where we have come back strongly at home. last season's game against the penny panfers was brilliant. as long we keep it tight in defence early and not cough up...

    Warriors

    i've seen all 3 games the bro's have played and their forwards do tend to fade late in the halves. our forwards are definitely fitter than theirs, so we will have an advantage there. one thing is for sure, if we play like we did against the rooters, we're sunk. we need to bring bell and...

    Who is going to the game on Sunday??

    i definitely will be there, making sure the can bar on the hill is busy. :drunk: our games against the bro's are always good. lucky its an early kick off, as there will be no bouncers on the corso, they'll all be at the game.

    Crusher's post match analysis

    Crusher's post match analysis some good points there crusher. a little harsh on king though. i'm just happy to see him playing hard. i dont know if it was a ploy by des or he just thought the big guys were coping well, but i was suprised he used the bench as little as he did. rose and hall...

    No polish.

    ox would have to be one of the unluckiest players going around when it comes to rep call ups. when fit, he's up there with the best 7's in the game. he had some great games last season once he settled in. remember last season when the blues had no option beyond finch!? i'd take monas ahead...

    Some thoughts

    manlybacker - you are right on the money mate. neither monas or burns have the passing game yet to fully utilise the backline, hence lyon and bell having quiet games. it wasnt until monas switched to short passes that we started getting some results in attack. burns is still learning the...

    Rooters supporters and Anasta

    mini looked pretty dangerous everytime he carried the ball. i loved burns' tackle on him in the first half on the 10 metre line. pure gold. the nickname "texas terrier" is pretty apt. by the way, the fans in the away section gave a great account of themselves. the manly chant after...

    Achtung Corso Pete

    ballin has been waiting in the wings for a while, so i think he'll be hungry to impress and stake his claim for a permanent spot. at the worst, he might be error prone, due to enthusiasm, but he doesnt strike me as the type of player to coast through a game.
