I reckon we could do a Gal and face them back to back and still win. So I couldn't care less. It would be funny to beat souffs with Fatrell in the team again though.

Souths pack has no hope against ours. They were getting routed by the Chooks until the game completely melted down. They were routed by us up front without Fish and Nath’s kicking game a month back. They only stuck in that game by countering our edges which were weaker without regular halves defending.

I don’t fear the Sharks although I think they are a more well rounded team than Souths and wouldn’t be surprised if they went with us for 60 like Parra. Can’t see them having the legs or the experience to keep it together for 80.

Not worried by any of them but would like Souths because it's funny to beat them and watch social media melt down after being so certain Mitchell would've won them the GF.

My in-laws are Rabbits fans, so I'd much prefer they're gone this week so I don't have to socialise with them.

Was bad enough yesterday watching it with them as a neutral. Couldn't handle it if we're enemies.

That's my purely selfish reason.

From a pure football point of view, I think the Sharks trouble us less too. And they have less thugs wanting to turn the game into a boxing match.

Especially with Burgess out as he copped a minimum 2 game ban on that hit on Teddy.

After that win over Parra, and Mel and Easts being accounted for, the rest of the teams are bricking it in the thought of playing us.

And take in consideration, that the only way Souths are going to beat the Sharks, is if they apply the same tactics they did against the Roosters.

And if they do, they'll have a few missing. Same with the Parra V Canberra match. These are win at all costs games. Who gives a hoot if you have players missing the next week if you win the match for a chance to get into the GF?

Neither team worry me on the field. In the buildup though, I'd prefer a week of hype over the Shark's glamour couple than the usual Souths baggage.

Nope, I have never feared any team still don't

Shark defence and not closing that game out, shows they are a bit away from being a top team

Souffs have horrible discipline, Just troll them all night and wait for the brain explosions
