I know they are playing some freakish football.
I know they are leading the comp.
I know they have won 9 in a row.
But...
That Bulldogs side is very beatable if you ask me. Kasiano's absence makes the pack look very containable for a grinding pack like ours for mine. Their halves are inexperienced enough to go missing if their pack gets rolled and Mullen and Roberts apply pressure. We can probably claim the mantle of forcing Barba to have his worst game of the year with our kick chase aggression in round 4 and a repeat is needed.
Spread the ball early and move their big forwards around and conserve our forwards energy for a fast linespeed all night. I think our backs could tear the Dogs backs up on form, Boyd will be the Key for us. His passes hit the mark and we reach double figures in line breaks and we'll win. Very Important that Kev, Uate, Tahu and Gagai make a good 60 runs between them and take a lot of workload off the forwards so they can really bring the D in the ruck.
I'm very confident - more confident than i was of victory over the Raiders.
