2018 R22 Fri - Rabbitohs 14-18 Roosters @ ANZ

[Valheru]

Fair call.

Though last time you lost in Week 1 of the finals only to play a prelim in Sydney...

The last time we lost in week 1 was 2015 but yes the point stands.

I am more coming from the angle that if I were to finish 3rd or 4th this year I would rather play Melbourne week 1 than week 3.

 

[Timmah]

I make the bold prediction that the side that wins here will lose if they meet again in September/October.

No NRL scheduled in October

GF on Sep 30. Could have saved some bandwidth.

 

[Vic Mackey]

No Keary is a huge loss, think Souths get this. Will be close though.

He was out by one day.... are you really that f**king pedantic?

 

[Tommy Smith]

Yes, yes he is.

 

[Das Gupta]

Souths.

 

[Lyoto]

Unfortunately I think we'll lose this, Keary is too big of a loss and I'm expecting Cook to destroy us through the middle again.

 

[OzDragon]

With no Keary I'll tip Souffs in a pretty irrelevant contest in the grand scheme of things.

Yeah for a roosters/souths game I feel pretty apathetic about this one and unless there is a flogging either way the result is pretty meaningless.

Getting through without any major injuries is the main concern at this point.

A game Rorters will likely lose = meaningless contest. I see.

 

[Valheru]

A game Rorters will likely lose = meaningless contest. I see.

Why will we likely lose?

For the record i said the same thing before the dragons game 2 weeks ago so there goes that theory.

Two top 4 teams going to head to head pre-finals, nothing game

Bring on the surfeit of bottom 8 teams playing against top 8 teams, that's what the fans want

 

[GongPanther]

On one hand,you have Souths who beat a team in the Storm last week. On the other hand you have Easts who narrowly beat a lowly side by only 6 points.

Will Souths be too battered after the Storm win? Will Easts be battered after a game with Nth Qld who had size in their forwards.

I'll go for a Souths win being that last weeks monumental effort,will inspire Souths to a repeat performance.

Souths by 4.

 

[Rabbits20]

Kennar back on the wing for Souths and Hunt back to centre..

Richie had a strong start to the year before injury. He adds a lot yardage and energy to us coming out of trouble...

Souffs got lucky against lowly Parra only the week before, though.

More than likely a draw after extra time then.
