Get to the game people, this should be an absolute cracker. We're a bit weakened player wise but if we get the attitude right we'll be balls deep in this one

 

[Monk]

I'll try my best to be there! Should be a cracker.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

We're going to get touched up big time. They'll put 40 on us.

 

[Cliffhanger]

We will put 40 on them.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

In the under 20's I agree. Newtown will probably put 40 on the dogs too (conceding about 28 along the way)

Dreading the prospect of Arona against this mob again. He'll give away 5 penalties by himself.

 

[Horrie Is God]

I'm expecting a much more energetic effort from the boys this week..

There was a reason for the lethargy of the last few weeks, but it's cleared up now, so no excuses this week..

I love our battles with the vermin..

 

[morley101]

First Round against the Rabbits... they had 56% of the ball...I have no doubts if we get 50% possession we will win

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

They had a 6-1 penalty count for the first hour including the momentum turning "strip" call. We've got too many injuries to even make tomorrow a contest

Aubusson (possibly)
Kennedy (rumoured return, unfit anyway)
Cordner
RTS
LOD

Then the backup would all be playing, especially the backs
Oldfield
Moga
Evans

Having to play Arona at all and possibly Langi at centre, may as well not turn up.

SBW playing a tighter role because we need to tighten the middle like we did during JWH suspension. f**kin LOD :x

 

[BCH]

There's virtually no mention anywhere in the press about our injury / suspension issues...all set up for a South's win. Hope for a good showing so we can take some confidence into the finals (along with the return of some playing strength).

 

[Big Sam]

How do you lot usually go under Klein and Checcin?

 

[bellyache]

Atleast 12 penalties and all no tries sent to vidiot..

Lost 5/6 I think

[Lambretta]

Maubs ruled out with concussion
RTS has a moon boot on - not sure how long he will be out
Cords is gone
Oldfield injured so he can't replace RTS
Moga injured so he can't replace RTS or Oldfield
Kennedy injured still
LOD suspended still

Aiden Guerra (a bench player) will leave his place in our starting pack to play in the centres and Flipper will go onto the wing. Expect that combination of wide sloth to leak 50 points and contribute nothing.

Liu will move into starting pack and some other nuffy will come onto the bench to replace him.

So all in all, things are going really well.

May as well rest Sonny and the others - put out the Jets team and get training for the Semi's.

 

[Horrie Is God]

??

There has been a virus going through the place..

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

I'd be surprised if Guerra played centre. Just as surprised as the rumoured Aubusson replacement tbh

 

[morley101]

Kennedy to play.

 

[parky88]

Any word on SBW?

 

[Sir Les Patterson]

lol not bad

 

[Sir Les Patterson]

With a full strength Chooks this game would have been epic, only hoping they can keep it respectable.
