Well Game Day is upon us. I finished work and got home very late last night but got up about 45mins ago and I’m up with a spring in my step despite how tired I am. Yes Game Day is upon us once more the sun is shining it’s a lovely winters day so all you Souths faithful get out to Accor. Many say we do not get day games well here we are so let’s all get out there and make it a very good atmosphere the boys need us and deserve the support undermanned and understrength they have been trying their fckin guts out! Every game is big but our next 4 weeks are a massive test up against all the top 4. We will be underdogs in every game but that doesn’t matter that’s how we like it and I think this season has shown anyone can beat anyone. We come into this 6 and 5 and as of today sit 9th. Win we go back to 6th lose we could end up 10th. Today is an enormous chance to go 7 and 5 at halfway the stage of the season and start our next run of 6 weeks of games before our next bye in style. The Wahs have been a bit off the last few weeks which I would say means they will be right on their game today so we have to be ready. Junior appreciation round as well so expect a good crowd today no excuses for there not to be.
Looking at the Warriors they come in 8 and 3 and off the back of a loss to Canberra. They are having a great season well coached big and strong and lots of skill and pace in the backs. Webster has done a great job with them. In the pack they have JFH and Barnett two of the best front rowers in the game and Erin Clark at lock has been one of the buys of the year I think. Add in Capewell and Niukore and some good young energy off the bench and they’re a very formidable pack. Metcalf and CHT have been on fire in the halves. Add in CNK, RTS and DWZ in the backs and you have a strong strong strong side. They deserve to be 3rd currently so it’s a massive task to knock them off. As I said they’ve been off the last few weeks but I do not expect that today. For us having Trell back up is big. Keaon we will need an enormous game from again in the middle as we will all our pack Arrow, Aitken, Hubner, Aitken then Tatola, Keppie off the bench etc. We need to match the Wahs in the middle as best we can to have any hope. Again completing our sets highly will be crucial. We will need Jamie and Sullivan to do their job in the halves too. Stopping those Wahs offloads and making sure our discipline is bang on too will be key. If we can go with them early we will have a chance but can’t afford any defensive lapses otherwise they’ll make us pay.
Well not long til the players make their way out onto Accor Stadium on this lovely Sunday afternoon what weather we have here for our junior appreciation round. Great to see so much young energy and the next generation South Sydney players all out here this afternoon. Let’s make sure we all make plenty of noise here for the full 80mins. Let’s hear that mighty South Sydney chant for the full 80mins here today and let’s be the extra man in the stands to get our boys home our boys in the Mighty Red and Green and get those 2 vital competitions points here this afternoon.
