There are four things going against us
1) The referee. Can’t believe this bloke is regarded as one of the NRL’s best officiators
2) It suits the NRL and media narrative to have a Qld team go deep into the semis. It’s good for TV ratings.
3) They have got more rep players than us. Eg: Holmes, Dearden, Robson etc.
4) Our inability as a team to step up the intensity and tempo in semi final football. It was quite evident in our game last weekend

Agree, particularly on points 1 and 2.

Point 1. Other coaches go through hours & hours of Sharks match video, gleefully note taking on ways to f**k us royally, as does our little friend, with hair that is chasing the back of his neck. Smarmy little twat yeast that he is.

I'd like to think the Cows believe the hype and think they've got the game won before they step out onto the field.

We have a two fold benefit and downside at stake here….

win - free crack at Penrith as the biggest prelim outsider in betting history and we get the semi monkey off our back

lose - we are out and next year the same stories return when we run 4th with an easy draw.

Kudos to the club for doing something ala the sharks shiver thing.
Get out there people
