Game day and I am excited and nervous at the same time. Titans will lift coming off a loss and with Foran's 300 game. Not putting a lazy 30 on this game as the odds are not good enough. I think we can get this done though.

Not so worried about Bird at 5/8, as quite simply he won't see much ball anyway. I imagine Hunt will hog the ball just about on every play, be that good or bad.

Hunts kicking game (unfortunately) is the key to us winning today. The Tit's have ultra speed in the backline, his usual 5th tackle mid-field bomb will be a disaster for us. Imo.

I see Bird over calling compared to flanno , he suffers no lack of confidence

If we win today it will be through out-enthusing our opposition.. and it rly helps that both their main props r out.

Can usually tell early if Hunt is on or not..

Titans are very much in the finals race surprisingly, ive been playing with the ladder predictor and there are quite a few ways they get in.. but a lot rides on today, lets hope WIN is our fortress again.

This is a must WIN for us. Cannot afford to drop our guard. It is at WIN, the players have to lift and pace themselves by being effective with their defence and attack, not make too many mistakes and the big thing is ensure possession is high.

The refs have been clamping down on players and penalising them even if they attack the throat let alone the head, so keep tackles all at chest height.

The Titans want a reversal of us beating them in Round 1 and to turn things around from their big loss against the Sharks last weekend.

We can WIN so go hard, go strong and don't lay down.

Dragons been in the news all week for varied reasons , which can be a major distraction
Flanno needs to ensure the boys are Switched On and must dominate field position and possession
The Titans are a very sharp attacking side with speed to burn but leak points when put under pressure
The Dragons power game should be directed at their backline
Can get a distinct advantage there
Plenty of breeze about today so kicking game vital
