[Misanthrope]

Them. We're missing influential players. They're missing Inglis. You can't replace GI, but there's enough firepower across the whole squad to deal with us.

 

[Yosh]

I think it depends which team turns up. I'm confident but if they get a roll on, they gonna blow us off the park.

 

[Joker's Wild]

At ANZ so we'll get well and truly rolled

 

[Jono078]

I think a lot of their boys will be fired up about missing out on origin too.

 

[Zoidberg]

Hopefully a lot of our fans can make the trip and cheer the boys on.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

do well to lose by 20 or less

 

[RHCP]

We're gonna get belted.

 

[Jobdog]

Call me mad, but this is the type of game we're probably actually a half-decent chance in. We always seem to struggle in games we're meant to win and go a lot better in games we're expected to lose.

 

[Noname36]

We'll get destroyed. I would have given us a good chance at full strength but we have too many key injuries and Gidley missing is going to hurt.

 

[Swarzey]

If the right team shows up, then we can get them. Apart from Reynolds and the Burgess brothers, there is nothing special across their squad. Sutton is overrated as f**k and Merritt can't defend considering they're two "danger" and "in form" players. If Mullen's kicking game is on fire, BJ plays as well as he did against the Warriors, Jimmy remains playing spectacular footy (Furthering the atrocity of not getting selected) and Kev Naquaima is on fire like he was last week against the Dogs, we'll tear their outside edges.

 

[Zoidberg]

Stuff you Sharkies. Not gonna make things any easier for us.

 

[Swarzey]

No Inglis, Te'o, McQueen and most likely Burgess. They were terrible without Inglis running the ball on kick returns and in the back line. Merritt is mediocre without him there so he won't be a problem. Just gotta watch Reynolds and Sutton.

 

[Jobdog]

Sutton might be a chance of filling the bench spot vacated by Gids too.

 

[Yosh]

Sutton's been good this year. I dont think he is a hack at all.

I hope they dont take mullen...

 

[undertaker]

I'm confident we will win the "We Got Dis" Cup next Saturday.

WE GOT DIS!

 

[Rod]

S. Burgess facing a one match suspension unless he contests and wins. It's evening up a bit in terms of unavailable players now.

 

[Adsy]

1 match suspension?! What Burgess did was IMO worse than Smith and he got 5 weeks!

 

[Swarzey]

It's the system we have. It cannot possibly remain consistent and its the favourable players like Burgess and Cronk who will escape serious suspensions and those weeks will fall on other players.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Team almost as I expected but I thought they might bring Tahu back instead of Peter Mata’utia.
Mullen will relish Captain. It's been a while.
