Who are you counting as being replaced by Hopgood?We havn't really replaced Marata. So we need some kid to step up. Rodwell ?

Papa probably with maybe Matto playing on the edge.Who are you counting as being replaced by Hopgood?
But turned the game in first grade against Manly. So is he a quality first grader or a shit reserve grader? Or somewhere in between?
I think our grand final team looks very strong and is very capable of taking down the Panthers. It’s not just blind optimism. I think we match up very well against them across the park.That's exactly what I don't understand... does anyone on here that knows football, really expect us to win on Sunday?
Sure, we all desperately want us to win, but wanting and expecting are different things.
Current Panthers team have beaten everyone and are pretty much unstoppable. Yes, we beat them twice this year and yes, we were ripped off against them last year, but that is a pretty small sample size when you compare it to their week in, week out performances over the last 3 years.
My deepest wish is that we win but I'm not about to slash my wrists or demand coach sackings, etc. if we happen to lose to the short priced favourites.
You’ve got the coaching genius Trent Barrett joining you next year- it’s now or never!do we really believe the theory that our premiership window is closing … ? If papill stays I don’t reckon our squad is materially worse / better and with another year and finals experience particularly for our halves … we may still be a strong chance next year.

Robbo is 3 from 3 in GFsIf we win on Sunday, BA will have the highest Grand Final winning % of any coach in the NRL.
replacing him with even Bellamy or Robinson would be a step down.
Or was he unlucky in the Bulldogs final?Hmm. Well you talk a lot about luck. Maybe he was lucky?
Who would that be?does anyone on here that knows football,
Brad has done a great job and delivered this year that’s for sure.Oh FFS!! Did we win?!
