Grand Final Team Vs Storm

[spirit of league]

Because it hasn't been used of late, we won the last two games without it.
A new culture has started

A-to-the-men

 

[Surely]

I also have a feeling he is well past well enough to play meaning he isn't an injury risk.

Good mobile bench.

We will beat them with stamina. We also had an extra days break and they played in the rain.

I don't think the extra day means f**k all to be honest.

What's more important is the energy we saved late in the game whereas storm had to fight to the end.

Cardy did you remember the interview with Cronk right after the game. The interviewer asked him how he felt when the Raiders scored with minutes to go.

Cronk never missed a beat. Said something like, we were never really worried. The coach had us training for such a scenerio during the week. We just followed the plan.

He's a good coach is that Belliache.

 

[Card Shark]

No 2 ways about that.

Raiders played into their hands a lot by f**king up.

Maybe. But maybe Cronk is good in front of the mic.
Coach in waiting

I like that the Storm got roughed up by Canberra's giants...have to feel a little bruised with blokes like Paulo and Leilua knockin ya around. Storm are always hard for us to beat but I feel we've given ourselves the best chance we could. Just harness that gritty attitude we did when we beat em in 2012 with a Jez Smith barge over late in the game...Melbourne are structured and near perfect, but they don't like the unpredictable.

 

[Card Shark]

IMO, we haven't played the perfect game all year.

I get the feeling we are peaking just at the right time.

The minor premiership play-off (a game that ultimately meant SFA), we played well but bombed heaps of chances, didn't give too much away & gave the Storm a false sense of superiority (sure convinced heaps in here).

We will smash them! They wont know what hit em'. We will dominate the big 2 & the rest will crumble!

The best thing about the cowboys victory, aside from Holmes bumping off Thurston, was seeing W. Graham finally fire again. Like Bird he had gone pretty quiet since origin but in that game he charged.

If 5 of our guys fire we win this thing. Don't care who they are as we have options across the field, but hoping to see the Maloney/Graham left side connection go ballistic one more time.

Capewell has to be in the side. Full of confidence and will bring onto the field that energy that can lift a tiring team, perfect to come in off the bench. Flanno has brought him on perfectly this season.

Wado played great on Friday
if they are all on song, we can definitely win this.

worried a bit about feki under the high ball.
our blockers need to be on point

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

im also a bit concerned about barba
in that he hasn't really had a great break since that Newcastle game weeks ago.

he needs to be trailing through for the offloads and half breaks its the KEY to unlocking the storm.
its harder to score the closer you are. if you look at the game we won against em we scored from beyond half way both times.
we need to capitalise on that broken field stuff

 

[Poss]

Barba said this morning that he is not 100% after last week. Still sore and hoping it comes good before Sunday. We need him to be firing.

 

[millersnose]

That makes Beale a certainty for the bench

 

[Frenzy.]

Yes, if it's true

It's duck season

 

[shaggs]
