Crazy thing is that we could still drop out of the 8.

Rorters are in 10th on 8 wins, which is similar to us chasing wahs, but everyone else is only 1 win behind us... Sharks are level with us on wins, but have another bye to come and a soft as **** run home (as usual).

If this team gets too focussed on trying to make the top 4 then the chasing pack will go straight past them.

I'm expecting a repeat performance when we toweled them up in Darwin in the heat.

I also think Boss hog Carrigan will have a blinder tonight as he was used sparingly in origin and will have gained immeasurable satisfaction from sitting the cocky cockroahes down.

48-10 with Pat scoring under the posts....giddy up boys!
 
Yeah this would be my thought... encourage them to make signs or whatever as engagement and passion for something... but remind them theyre not entitled to anything just because they made a sign.

If they happen to get Walshy's boots good for them... but if not dont come whinging to me or complain to someone about it.

But I'm not a parent either... so I'll just throw barbs from a distance lol
In this day and age I would much prefer my grandkids to want to take a sign they made to the footy rather than their ubiquitous iPads.
 
One thing that always kills us vs eels are offloads... specifically Junior Paulo who becomes prime SBW vs Broncos.

Need to wrap up that ball tonight otherwise they'll be chasing them around all over the field.

They're sitting top 5 for offloads per game... so it's still in their gameplan.

Hopgood and Dylan Walker will be throwing them around like maniacs too. Jack Williams has also been alright when he comes into the middle for some work.

Scoreline says that they got spanked against the Raiders but they really should have been up 28/34-12 at half time. I feel that they'll make a few line breaks in the middle of the field unfortunately. Hopefully their support play is as trash as it was last weekend - it was worse than our game against Souths, if that's believable!

Add in MM, given the wingers they have, they should be scoring a lot of points. They've tried a few times now to blow us off the park in the first 20 minutes and that has worked pretty well for them.

We've only really wrestled those games back and won recently because they weren't able to carry on with that for 80 minutes. With more strike and points, that could be a genuine concern if we start sleepy tonight.

Feel we need to aim to blow them off the park in the first 20 so they start to run in quicksand realising it's another loss and give up.
 
Jahrome Hughes out for their home game against us in three weeks. Hopes to be back for the last round against us at Suncorp.

Can also bank that Paps mysterious claims injury that has kept him out for 4 weeks will suddenly be healed up.

Expect him back next week now that Hughes is injured... if not next week then $1.01 for broncos game the following week.
 
I have a great feeling about tonight!!!

Records are about to be broken!!!
