Moving onto the next week, the next Round, and looking forward to the next game. This time, we’re back in action on some Saturday night Footy against the Tigers, out there at the old Campbelltown Stadium. I honestly can’t remember the last time we played at Campbelltown. We had a trial game there in 2017, but the last time we played there in a Regular Season match? I don’t know. Anyone care to enlighten me? Anyways, looking forward to getting back there and it’ll be good for our fans out that side of town.

Going up against the Tigers again will be interesting as we only played them a few weeks ago. We won that one in a bit of a high-scoring, see-sawing match and honestly, I don’t want the same in this one. Of course, I want the same result, but not a rollercoaster game.

This week, I’d like to see us really hunker down and get to it. This is a game we are capable of winning, and it’s one I believe we should win. So, we need to go out there and just put in a solid performance. Don’t allow it to be a see-sawing game.

It’ll be an interesting one, as both teams are out of Finals contention so there’ll be a bit of stress-free Footy, but we just need to put in the same kind of top-notch effort we have been the last couple of weeks, and that might be enough. We still have an incredibly depleted side, and no one is back this week so that will make it tough again and give the Tigers a chance, but I still feel we have enough to get it done this week.

Always love playing the Tigers, it’s good to ignite the Sydney rivalry again, and both teams are well supported so it should be a good atmosphere out there.

Our next two games are winnable, and I think we get this one.

Go you Bunnies!! Bring on Saturday.

The Tigers will fancy their chances after getting on a roll against us last time round and feeling that they could have had our measure plus, we are even more depleted than we were that day.

They could be without a halfback though and may have to play Api in the 7 the way things are shaping.

We want to start well and play from in front to keep their home fans quiet.

As for our record at Campbelltown Stadium, the records show we have played there 11 times for 4 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses.

The good news is we've won 2 of our last 3 regular season matches played there. The bad news is that it is that long ago, I don't think that form is exactly relevant any longer. In fact, our last game there was a 16-10 victory against the old Wests Magpies in June 1999 in the months before our exclusion from the game! That's how long ago it was.

Which means, this will be the very first time EVER that we will have played the Wests Tigers merged entity at Campbelltown.

Need to make it 3 from our last 4 there.
