NRL on alert as Covid outbreak has Brisbane Grand Final in doubt: https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nr...s/news-story/1c98040e200da7cb9bd960b1454865ac

Hoping and praying that Covid stays away this week. Obviously, if the game has to be moved, it has to be moved but I really want it to stay at Suncorp. Will be so much cooler. Not to mention a huge moment for our Queensland fans.

Apparently we’re pathetic for thinking that. If it was the other way around they would be kickin up a stink

I don't get it. It sounds like some Souths supporters are throwing in the towel. Penrith might be favorites, but there is such thing as an upset. I'm more than proud that we get to play Souths in a GF...in fact, I'm honored.

Well im Glad you feel that way. In no way have I given in the towel.
It’s Penrith the young superstar team minus TPJ yes but Leota comes back into the fold.
Cleary is the best 7 in the Comp.
3/4 of your team was in the dally m team of the year. Your back to back GFs
You have every right to be favourites.
The team you are versing have their 7 leaving at the end of the year who is a local junior and has bled for the club- he loves this place.
We have a SuperCoach in Wayne Bennett leaving also.. Gags, Sua, Bennett, Reyno, Benji.. should be enough to get the boys up for it.
but again, we are versing a Penrith time who are in back to back grand finals… they also have the added help of a one a Grant Atkins who is a Penrith referee association life member in the bunker box.
We are up against it but I do hope we can win the first 20, then go onto win the game.
Let’s get #22!

I was referring to what you said in your post thus: "Apparently we’re pathetic for thinking that" to which I thought you were referring to some posts before yours as if they don't sound to confident.

Defeating Penrith is hard enough without the added difficulty of having a guy who has potential to be bias in the video box

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

Their cheating knows no bounds.

They have almost reached the level of the Rorters, it's shameful.

They were once respected, but their cheating tactics have soiled their team.

From Clearasil being designated an endangered species by the UN World Heritage organisation, to fake moon boots and wheelchairs, to blatant rorting on goal kicks, to crying to the NRL about our coach's complaints about their rorting to the NRL, to bending the cap and hiring mercenaries who don't give a f##k about their club, to their stooge boy Atkins slime-ing himself into a position to favour them.....

Honestly the respect will belong to us if we win, to overcome all this rorting, cheating, and rule-bending favouritism, and still win, it will be the greatest upset since Rocky Balboa beat Clubber Lang and Ivan Drago to win the title

 

[Ikonic]

I think the wheelchair thing was a joke
Looking from their point of view I get it

 

[The_Frog]

30mins in mate to a 1 hour show still no talk on Souths the bias is off the charts.

Gould says he’s never been more certain of anything and that’s that Penrith will win quite comfortably this Sunday.

If its Souffs gushing you desire go to NRL 360, and its 3 hours a week rather than 1. It's wall to wall. You could be forgiven for thinking it's Nine vs Fox rather than Panthers vs Rabbitohs.

We had one of those just last year.

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

Of course we can.

Must be patient in attack work them over get repeat sets and have fast line speed stop the offloads.

Our back 3 will be tested they’ll need to be on.

If we get our D right I think we have more points in us than them.

FIRE UP BOTANY MATE WALKING ALONG SINGING A SONG SINGING GLORY GLORY GLORY ALL THE WAY THIS IS OUR TIME

Just got the GF T-shirts for my missus and me delivered.

I'm fired up and ready!

I couldnt have said it better myself

Of course respondents are gonna say this. If they don't, they will be shot for "treason". Or end up with novichok poisoning. That's your go now isn't it?

Just be sure your at home to answer the knock on your front door.

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

Just be sure your at home to answer the knock on your front door.

Warning: Don't come.

CCTV and booby-trapped

Souths have sold out 6 bays for Sunday compared to Penriths 3 says Buzz.

I can’t wait to hear all the Souths cheering and chanting coming through my TV.
