[The Brain]

If those rigpies play like last week..we might have a tough game.Our forwards should do them.

Agree. Hopefully we bash them through the middle and complete our sets

[ism22]

We win this, right?
Surly we do.

I don't know what it is about this team that erodes my confidence.

I don't take any results for granted. IMO there's 80 minutes of footy to be played and if we take the result for granted then the Tigpies can do a Doggies/Cowboys style job on us.

But yes. With our roster there's no excuses for a poor showing... we are deservedly favourites and the game is ours to lose.

Their young five eighth is a gun. We need to limit his time and space or maybe just smash him. Api is the other dangerous one!

[The Marshall]

I think Wests will be competitive and I get concerned about our propensity for complacency. I reckon we can only afford to drop two maybe three of our last 9 to make top 4. We should and must win .
GO EASTS

[ChookMaster]

King making his debut today. Go hard son.

chooks to win 13+.

We are serious this year.

[OMR]

API will represent the most danger , we must not fall
for his dummies and restrict his movements.

[DP1990]

Still not confident with Sitili in at centre.

Defensively he can be a liability. Hopefully Ethan King gets a crack and this was all part of the plan this week.

Final team is Sitili the centre? Dear oh dear.

[Big Dog]

I have a feeling that we might put a big score on today. Not quite 70 like we did to them a few years back, but 50 is a chance

The poor weather may play a part in that, although we were outstanding last week in miserable conditions. Just hope we don't take the Tigpies lightly.

Trent Robinson has finalised his side to take on the Wests Tigers at Allianz Stadium.

No changes have been made prior to kick-off, with Origin contingent Spencer Leniu, Angus Crichton, Connor Watson and Lindsay Collins set to take the field.

Ethan King is the side's 18th man in the no.21 jersey.

[Roosterfarian]

Farian will be watching from the South of France. Bonsoir!

[mightyrooster]

Sitili centre? I really didn’t think Robbo would go through with that.

[Carlos Parra]

A week ago, the Tigers were paying $6 to win. They're currently paying $4.95. Easts have drifted a little, but the bookies usually know what they're doing. The bookies also seem to think that more than 51.5 points will be scored.

Api worries me though.
