OK. But I will wait for the OFFICIAL loss declaration by mick and bet accordingly with tomwaterhouse.com.
Every time I see this level of confidence (read over confidence) we seem to get our pants pulled down.
I agree that IF we play to our potential we should smash em, but I have a niggling feeling in the pit of my stomach that tells me an ambush is in the making here.

So true, this is how i feel about this Sunday, can't wait for Sunday Arvo footy but slighty nervous about it. Big expectation that we will win by large margin doesn't bode well for us alot of the time and we struggle but hopefully we overcome it this week. With Carney out we should strangle them out of the game surely!!
We have win as I'm going with a Sharks fan and a Norths fan so will get a bagging if we lose!
I really really hate these games....those ones after we have played our hearts out to defeat a top side(s) the week(s) before and then turn up against a side we should beat easily to get our backsides smacked....for example the Titans game last year is one that springs to mind.
Matt Parish, when he was assistant coach, told me when talking about this in Leeds last year that in reality most players are within 1% of ability of each other, barring of course the games superstars.
And then he went on to say that as most of the players are close (in ability) to each other that it's largely their mental attitude that can determine the outcome of a game.
And that's what worries me, mentally are they "up" for this game or mentally are they just thinking of this as a walk in the park!!
MIGOTY in my opinion!!
