We don't have one outside May. This is the best 17, by a fair margin, that can be picked for this game.

Yes I mean May play as the edge 2nd rower and Burton in May's role.

The only way Souths will win is on the edges. Unless Tetevano or someone comes on as an edge forward then I don't see how this 17 works

We have won umpteen games with a three man prop rotation. JFH and Yeo are both capable of playing on the edges if we need to. JFH drops to lock, Yeo to second row, Leota to prop. We can do this all day long. To attack our edges they will need to be driving forward and with our prop rotation, they will struggle to get in our half, which is just how we like it.

Roll up the middle, kick to the corners, pin them down. No penalties. They make a lot of errors and if they are being smashed in defence they will make plenty in this game. It will be a tough game, we need JFH and Tamou to be at their best to keep the momentum. If the forwards play to their potential, we can do this.

Exactly what Newcastle and Para could not do, but we've been doing it all year.

Do you think luau is the same player as last time.And field position will decide just how the bunnies attack.Bombing from halfway is less effective than 20 out .The panthers are a far harder side than the bunnies have had last 2 weeks
He's improved but Crichton and Teddy gave him some trouble last game.

Our Bench has it all over the Rabbits also.
They lose Walker,Reynolds or Cook during game they can't compensate with their bench or even rotate a player in their 13 to competently cover them if any one or more of those 3 go down with an injury.
We have the best Utility in the comp which is overlooked.

We need to score 28 + to beat the bunnies no way we win 10 8 that's why we need Naden not Whare we have a better forward pack and bench but we need to score plenty of points because the bunnies can from anywhere on the field. Cleary will put the bunnies on the back foot via his kicking game, the bunnies pack especially Burgess are no match for us, most confident I have been all year of us winning. Already have GF tickets see you all out there on the night.

Exactly. We have what is probably the most complete roster in the comp this year.

The idea is to stop them doing that. The Rabbitohs have lost 8 games this year, their average losing score is 14 and their highest is 18. You can't outscore them in a high scoring game. They're just too good at it. You've got to stop them scoring by keeping them as far as possible from our line, putting defensive pressure on them to make them try to force passes and make mistakes. That is the key to beating them.

Basically they suck at the arm wrestle. Get them into the grind of set for set football.
