Team v's Roosters

[runatme]

gave we are expected to win easily we never do

 

[Ausguy]

Can't shake this bad feeling...

 

[The Masked Avenger]

Me too, bad vibes.

 

[Generalzod]

Never fear Smith is here...LOL

 

[coolumsharkie]

Smith is out

 

[Craigshark]

We will win easily =)

 

[Ausguy]

I'm attending that's why I have bad vibes.

 

[runatme]

i bet if it was NSW playing tonight gallen would play

 

[Ausguy]

Ooooowwwww runatme with a jab....

But I agree

 

[carcharias]

still has to have a fitness test yet.

don't be suprised to see him out there.

 

[SharkShocked]

Argue all you like about whether Gallen would play if it was a one off game tonight instead of a week in week out game.

Key issue is come finals time we need him and the rest of the squad fit and ready to go.

It doesn't bother me one iota that he is missing tonight in the grand scheme of things.

 

[shaggs]

If smith was playing, he would have a rest. He needs to play tonight and have a week off when smith is back.

Shocked i tend to agree normally but with the amount of teams breathing down our neck we CANT drop these kind of games to a team 10 places below us on the table, we must win and win well.

 

[carcharias]

need both next week

 

[DJShaksta]

Me too, bad vibes.

Changes the batteries Angry.

There are no easy games for us, we just need to play well and look to someone to step up and inspire.
Graham and Stappo did it in Brisbane.
Let's hope for a repeat of their great form.

 

[runatme]

the roosters forwards are big bad mean looking mothers

It bothers me. He is our highest paid and arguably best player and one hell of an on field leader and contributor. Tonights game is important as hell for many reasons listed and we should have/need him playing. If I am not mistaken his last game for his major employer was the loss against the Rabbits (which was a shocker by his standards) on May 7. Through Origin commitments and Origin caused injury he will now have missed the games against Bulldogs, Storm, Titans, Warriors, Broncos and now Roosters.

I understand where you're coming from Newms, but I'd rather a 100% fit Gallen against the queens next week and for the rest of the season.
Make the finals, with a fully fit and firing team ad we can hurt teams.

 

[carcharias]

ET used to do this ....play origin and be hurt for every game in between.

I understand and agree with your point but it stinks that the inference is that the Blues are more important than the Sharks. This season has the potential to be the best (or will be the 2nd best) in a decade and we have to do it without our best player because of an Origin series that was lost anyway.
