Our first game up against one of the big 3. Last year we had the best record In the comp against the top 3 teams (4 & 2) yet lost against 3 of the bottom 4.

So we have no issues getting up for the bigger sides. Problem is I’d say the roosters are comfortably playing better then any of these guys were last year.

There were some better signs against the Titans however that performance wouldn’t have got near the Roosters. No matter how I want to spin it I can’t see us having more points in us then them. Easts by 16.

I reckon it'll be close for 60 mins but don't think our current attack will ever trouble the top sides

I'll go Roosters 26-12 with the class of Mitchell/Tedesco to score 2 tries in the last 10 to seal it

Thinking of this game reminds me of the time I was accosted by a gang of mime artists: they did unspeakable things to me.

The Roosters are offering a Super Saver Family Deal for this match. Gives you 4 x tickets to the game, with a hot dog, a bucket of chips and a bottle of water for each person for a grand total cost of $80. The tickets are general admission.

Hey mate. Any ideas how one can purchase this?

I actually think the Tigers will win... the rematch later on when we're missing half our team to Origin.

This game though? Not so much.

We should be refreshed after a much needed 9-day turnaround.

Roosters by 14.

Was the opposite last year. Beat you blokes at full-strength and lost when the Origin players were missing. Absolute textbook Tigers.
