Can someone more familiar with this forum please tell me what Haynetrain's presence is for? Is he like the 'entertainment'?

The chances of finding intelligent life in our solar system are very small. The chances of an NRL upset are much greater, in fact it happens quite often. Titans by 7.
Incidentally, the chances of finding intelligent life in the NRL are minuscule.

Your team comes from the Goldie mate, trebuchets at glass castles when it comes to intelligence

People say that every time we play the Broncos, and we always lose. The Broncos have recently hit some (yes, some) form, while we look slow and tired. And let's not forget the Broncos have that finals experience in their team which we do not.

Nothing here suggests an upset imo, I'm just happy we've made it this far considering we were tipped to be in the bottom 3 by many people at the start of the year.

TT you really are the least 'fan like' fan I know. Cautious to a point of pessimism, you really are quite an enigma.

Nothing ever usually suggests an upset, that's why they're called upsets. But let's ride our boys home here as their achievements this far really have earned our unconditional support, even if they go no further.

We've got 'em at the Panthers too. One tipped us to be beaten by the Knights. Not naming names though.

As for the Titans, they are very dogged. If they can play this the way they like to play and especially if Hayne hits his straps they are a chance. They have the werewithal to knock the Broncos forwards about considerably, especially if they come in thinking they only have to turn up, as so frequently happens.

And I suppose I should apologise to some Broncos fans for having the temerity to suggest that their heroes might have a game on their hands here.

Don't get me wrong, I'll be riding them home alright but I'm not going to go all in to say we're going to win when there's nothing at all to suggest such a thing. An upset would be great, just don't bet your house on it like some of our fans seem to be.

Look, I can't help it when both my head and my heart agree.

You have to think about where the Titans are at mentally. Physically they must be tired, because they've scraped in to 8th after a grueling season, but mentally they must be completely shot. They'll look at their 8th placed finish, as opposed to where everyone said they would finish in the pre-season, take that as a big win on its own, go home and regroup for next year.

You really have to think about where the mentality of the team finishing 8th is, no matter who it is. It could've been the Warriors and I'd say the same thing. You're starting at the bottom of Everest, while your opposition gets a healthy head start.

Don't go hanging yourselves just yet Tits fans. The fact this is a local derby basically nullifies our home ground advantage, the only one we'll have this year so f**k you very much for that, so at least you have that feather in your cap.

It really depends on the Tits' mindset.
They've already exceeded expectations this year and Hayne will gel much better after an off season.

So they don't really have any pressure, the Broncos need to go very close this year to make amends....if they don't then I'd say their premiership window is smaller in the next few years.
I think Bennett knows this too.
If Broncos concede first then it's game on imo, Jarryd Hayne has been crud the last few games but we know with origin and Parra that he IS a big game player.
