Canberra will be desperate next week!

[Mark from Brisbane]

They have lost 7 straight, Orford is playing his old team (assume he's playing) and they beat us last year at Brookvale....you are damned right they WILL be up for it.

king is out.if choc and foran dont play this game will be a toss up.if they play we should win comfortably but dont expect a carve up.for some reason we rarely put sides to the sword these days.

Yes you have to wonder why that is Susan, it's been quite a while since we have put another team really under the pump!

Although I tend to think that the Refs try and "even things up" a fair bit these days and the 40-0 GF score in 2008 would have a fair bit to do with that!

the refs evening up is a good point mark but some sides do it.i cant really say why.we have the talent.

I think our bad discipline is the first reason. We give away too much possession and you can't score lots of points without the ball. The second is our young halves pairing. Im sure DCE and Foran will form a combination over time and with that will come more points.
