I think that this is a real possibility and if you look at our matches it won’t be as easy as it looked only a few weeks ago. Yes we will have Hodges back but he has only played a couple of games in 3 months, no one can expect him to be at his best. Also Hunt, TC and Eastwood return and that gives us more strike power but I wonder if that makes the team a little over confident.
Next match – Titans
The Titans have pretty much had the wood on us and if Locky hadn’t of kicked that long range field goal last year we would have been 0-3. With Prince back our little brothers from the coast always bring something special. Lets not for get that they need to win every game to have any chance of a finals berth so they won’t lack motivation. A real danger game and based upon current form I have my doubts as in our past 2 games we are averaging 50 missed tackles and if the same continues another loss is likely.
Bulldogs
Ok everything points to a comprehensive win here, sound familiar? That’s what everyone thought the last time we played them and we got done. The Bulldogs will fancy themselves against us and will try to salvage something from the year. Also it is an away game which adds a little to the mix. If we take this game too lightly (like last time) we will come up short.
Knights
Again on paper we should get over the Knights, however 2 things reduce my confidence.
1. Brian Smith – He always seems to get the better of Bennett and usually comes up with plays that expose our weaknesses
2. Last match, if wins goes to the favourites in the next 2 matches then it is very possible that the Knights will need this win to make the 8. Again that is huge motivation to get Buderus one more game and make the finals, the Knights will be a very well drilled and desperate football team and that makes them very dangerous indeed.
Thoughts anyone?
