Well, it's time. It's that time. It's the time of the year you work all Season for and it's the time of the year where the stakes are raised and every single little thing matters. It's the time of year where you can't afford mistakes and it's the time of year where you simply must turn it on. That's right, it's Finals time!! I honestly couldn't be more excited!! They say Finals is the start of a new competition, the NRL are promoting this Finals series as 'anyone's game' and I think that is very fitting. Let's knuckle down and get ready, strap yourselves in and enjoy the ride!!
Pretty happy to finish the Regular Season in third spot, that's a great result and gives us a good chance to really give this Premiership a shake if we have the desire.
What a way to kick off the Finals too, against the arch rivals yet again at a historic ground in the SCG. This will be a massive occasion. As I said last week, hate is a strong word but it is a word that is simply not strong enough when describing the Roosters. There's 111 years of hate, 111 years of bitterness and 111 years of fantastic battles between our clubs. I expect that to continue on Friday in what is perhaps one of our biggest clashes in recent history.
We simply must be on, there is no two ways about it. I feel like this will be a different game to last week. The Roosters will be a much better side as they get some troops back including Luke Keary which will make a big difference. Plus, there's also the fact that they'll want revenge for last week so will be very fired up, they'll be primed. In saying that, we will be too hopefully! The confidence we'll get from beating them last week cannot be underestimated in my opinion and I think that gives us a mental advantage because we know we can beat anyone now, we know we can do it, we just have to go out there and actually do it. We'll get troops back too in Tom, Jimmy, Turner and possibly George which will be fantastic. Sam is a huge loss but hopefully someone can step up and do a job in his spot. So yea, it's gonna be a super tough game and we'll have to put in our best performance of the year if we want to win, that's the way Finals go. I know the boys can do it!
Are you ready? This is gonna be a cracker of a Finals series, let's get into it!! Glory, Glory!!
