Sometimes you just have to laugh out our luck

[Skathen]

I get it's best to beat a team at their best - but after the last few years, an easy season would do us all wonders, however, be it players avoiding suspension when playing us the following week or returning from injury just in time. Sometimes one can't help but feel someone's kicked a black cat into a mirror while walking under a ladder with an open umbrella inside. /s - well sort of.

Even just last week and the next several weeks:

Turbo - serious knee injury missed over a month, but don't worry, back in time for the Broncos (ok the week before)

Gagai - injured for a month, but don't worry, back for the Broncos game apparently.

Milf - banned for several months - but don't worry, back for the Broncos game.

Fifi - Injured for a month, but don't worry! He'll likely be back next week against the Broncos.

Storm game in the middle of Origin - sweet, they might be down a few stars and we'll have half a .... no wait ... it's the weekend 9 days post and 9 days pre origin games, so they'll all be fine to play.

Paps - Injured for 4-6 weeks last week - which is.. *looks at calendar* right around when we play them.

Radley - Injured & surgery sidelining him for around 8 weeks - which is... in time for the Broncos.

A bit of luck and a few easier games please!

In past seasons that would be deflating. But this season, something feels different. I feel the team would relish the return of those players because it will be even sweeter smashing them at full strength.

Even titans who have been a cluster **** have realised that Campbell shouldn't be playing reserve grade behind Will Smith right in time for us to play them for the first time this year.

Raiders... we get them at home after origin... all good we've had **** all origin players the last few years, but nope this year we could have 5 or so backing up a few days later (Haas, Capewell, Carrigan, Cobbo/Oates/Staggs, Flegler) and raiders probably have 2 in Papa and Wighton.

Dragons in our origin affected game... they'll lose Bhunt and who else??

I for one prefer to play teams at their full strength and still **** them up and leave them with 0 points scored against us.

No excuses. We're either good or we're weak looking for an easy beat

Turbo was cooked. We actually caught manly at a perfect time. He shouldn't have even been playing. Manly would've been 100% better off sticking someone fit at the back instead. Anyone.

Better to catch them on the come back than when playing every week and in their groove . IMO .
