Conditions are goona be tough, but i reckon we can win it. While it was only the Raiders, the game last night was a good momentum builder.

Problem is, even if we do win it will take a bit out of us. The travelling and conditions wont be good.

It will be a 9 day turnaround for Grand final. We'll be fine.
I don't think the Cowboys will get close.

A bit of revenge might be in order for 2005 ?
They got you in the prelim at Homebush , a life time ago i know but history has funny ways of being re lived

More recently they stopped you again at Homebush in 2017 week 2 too when you were on a bit of a run

Going up to their patch & knocking them out in front of their people would be a dish served cold..

Will be about 24 degrees at kick off and 80% humidity.
That's almost perfect conditions. (For growing the magic medicine)

We owe the Cowboys some payback, hope we collect, it's time to collect.

We had a dress rehearsal for this game in Darwin that didn't go so well. We've mostly done well on return games this year so far, so there's some reason for optimism. This years Cowboys are a different beast than the Tigers, Bulldogs, Broncos or perhaps even Roosters, still they're not unbeatable either.

We're there, so we're a chance. Just stick to the game plan of scoring more points than them and we'll win.

The Roosters at their peak this season were better than the Cowboys and we beat them convincingly.

The cowboys defence was horrible against the sharks, if they defend like that we are far more potent attack wise than the sharks are.

im sure that’s what they have been working on.

like last night I really think an early try is key for us. It kicks us into gear and we go after the game. If we don’t score from early chances we appear to get frustrated and then start playing stupid.

be prepared to grind in the first 20 and take advantage of early opportunities and we’ll win.

The conditions won’t phase us if we are winning and playing with confidence. It’s when your heads and down and you are chasing points that the conditions and fatigue start playing on your mind

Dylan Brown was in the centres. Hayze perham on the wing.

Our attack was out of sync we had a shit load of early ball and looked clueless.

Cows scored 3 tries in last 5 mins when we gave up due to heat to blow score out.
