Reasons we will beat Cronulla?

[The distributor]

Teddy and Walker are playing for us.

[The Corner Post]

- The back end of the draw always looked good for us. I actually though we would have beaten Manly in Round 18, but it didn't happen and as such, we always needed to make a strong run home.
- Its no coincidence that we started playing much better once Ryles left. I suspect he did a lot of damage to our season.
- The big thing for me is that we look like we are playing more as a team.
- Walker is offering another point of attack, which we missed dearly.

All in all, we have come good at the right time of the year.
But keep in mind, the only top 8 team we have beaten this season are the Warriors and Knights.

Whether this recent form is good enough? We will soon find out.

What about reasons why we’ll lose ?

1. Our kicking game is awful. Can’t get distance. in a high stakes game field territory is crucial.
2. Talakai will run at manu all game and that’s guaranteed to be a try from a jersey grab.
3. Goalkicking is an ongoing issue in big games turning 4 into 6.
4. We’re the worst in the comp at short dropouts. Get them out of our system of play.
5. We don’t get enough repeat sets.
6. our disciple has been much better but still awful.
7. completions need to be above 80%

hopefully Robbo has earmarked these weaknesses for this week and our finals campaign. It’s a new competition. Easts to win

I believe that if we have a defence based game plan we can win.
Strong forward play up the middle.
Attacking from dummy half by Smith
Walker, Keary and Teddy will creat opportunities.
Attacking kicks and passes from Walker.
Suaalii, Manu, Billy and Pauga will finish them off.

I'm mildly confident but can't put my finger on 5 good reasons that Easts will triumph on Saturday night.

1. Walker is playing
2. Drew Aubusson isn't playing
3. KKKlein is not the ref
4. They'll do it for JWH
5. ????

I rest my case.
