[BranVan3000]

Souths by 34

 

[renouf]

Souths in a tight one, can't wait.. let's hope Sutton and co can actually give Inglis quality ball

 

[Vic Mackey]

Think souffs will somehow win this.

 

[natheel]

souths by 8 points

 

[Gaba]

If carney doesnt play , smithy's plans will not help the roosters.

Souths will win

 

[VodafoneWarriors1995]

Rabbitohs 16-10 Roosters. That's my prediction. I can totally see a fight breaking out for some reason (Luke or Sandow).

 

[_snafu_]

Judging on trial form, I'd be surpised if the Roosters do not put 50 on Souffs.

 

[adamkungl]

our trial form was patchy...

This is gonna be a typical Roosters v Souths game. Either nothing in it, or a total blowout, nowhere in between.

Roosters by 4 or 34.

 

[Timmah]

That's your prediction is it VW1995?

 

[Hutty1986]

Souths will use Tim Smith at 7 and he will nullify Pearce. Pearce is sh*t and Smith has no game plans

 

[Charlie124]

Roosters by halftime

 

[11Straight]

It's all about the game plans........and Pearce.Oh and Roosters by 7

 

[Gaba]

Souths will use Tim Smith at 7 and he will nullify Pearce. Pearce is sh*t and Smith has no game plans

Brian smith is in the top 3 coaches with tactical and technical game plans.


You are right with pearce though

 

[adamkungl]

tactical AND technical. That's how you know he's good.

 

[Hutty1986]

tactical AND technical. That's how you know he's good.

:lol: What a coach!!

You are one of the greats, Gaba

 

[Ziggy the God]

No ambush this year boys.

Souths by 13+.

 

[Timmah]

Tim Smith, Souths?

Have I missed something? :?

 

[WaznTheGreat]

These two teams are so geniused it will probably be a draw

 

[Hutty1986]

Tim Smith, Souths?

Have I missed something? :?

Gaba thinks Timmy Smith is a gun because he outplayed M. Pearce twice last year. Thus, he will be drafted into the Souths side illegally, because he has Pearcey's measure
