Wish it was at home. To come we have 2 games each against Raiders, Cows and Manly, and those are probably going to decide our season. Win half we're maybe a shot, we probably need to get 4 out of the 6 though to make the 8.

So he's definitely done? Did the succesful Moylan move finish him at the club?

I'd say the nail was in the coffin when he wasn't picked last week. Being left out of the 21 this week is his Panthers career being lowered into the ground.

Theres 3 players to shut down.

First is Rapana... which seems impossible
Second is Papali... which is doable if our pack back up last weeks effort
Third is BJ... But stopping him depends on which BJ shows up.

Keep them quiet. We win.

Who is BJ?

I know why. Canberra are a very good side who could easily have been in a much higher position on the ladder. This will be a very tough assignment.

Agree. This game is our first test in quite a while against a strong team that is playing well. If we beat them it will show we can mix it with the better teams and hopefully continue on with a surge into the top 8. Unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised if we lose but I always hope for the best!

I know there is some hype around Canberra and like us they are late finishers. Ive watched most of their games and they have massive lapses. They have had numerous chances in the last few weeks to close out games but havent. The key focuses are Papali/Croker and BJ/Rapana.

Other than that we need to contain Whitehead. He is their dangerman. The guy has this knack of poking his head through, getting late offloads and he's wonderfully talented at slowly the ruck down.

Personally, I think we will towel them if we can set the tone early.

In addition to the above I can tell you that Hodgson and Austin have been very quiet in recent weeks. This wont be the case for much longer.

Because I don't think we will towel them? Sorry that I don't fart rainbows and sing duets with animated woodland creatures, I guess.

"We won't" to "I don't think", nice sneaky change of context there.

Oh and I know you don't fart rainbows but I've heard you farting something.Then again it was probably your singing. :oops:

Lol no they aren't.

We won't = 100% chance of not happening

I don't think = I at least don't see it happening

I'm disappointed in you Billy. :(

Such a small thing to be arguing about. What is it they say in the movies "the fights out there, the Raiders are the enemy!" Lol.

Being serious though even with a win I don't see it being a blow out like the Dogs game. The Raiders are losing a lot of close games this year. We won't towel them but we could win a tight one.
