    I'm beginning to think we might get them on Friday.

    Don't ask me why.

      I'm getting the same feeling actually. Probably because we are now underdogs to the extent it might work in our favour.

      Logically though we should get smashed. But if so I don't see that as a disaster. We still get the home semi and troops back for the finals.

        Why should we get smashed?

There's NO WAY we can come within cooee of them the way the refs favour them. Add to that our very, very poor defense and one dimensional Pearce bombs making their return and you want us to fire up??.?

          Anyway a vermin trophy this year is a done deal by the refs and powers that be. If we even got fairness to the amount of a speck on a date stone we would be undefeatable. We are the greatest but they want a 'fairytale' ending to the comp for promotional purposes so be it.
          so much troll

              We still have a pretty handy squad mate...people are over estimating our opponents I think.

                Indeed, other then Inglis their backline is weak (Merritt can score try but that's about it). Their forward pack is very good but is nowhere near as mobile or skillful is ours. There halves are good, but all Reynolds has is a kicking game. Issac Luke and Greg Inglis are the ones that needs the most stopping, just surround Luke whenever he runs and kick to open space to nullify Inglis, or even kick it dead. It's how we beat Melbourne when we were last and they were first back in 07, the difference this time is we are 2nd and they also will need to be on their A game to beat us.

                  Form strongly suggests it.

                    We do Jack, but we'll be a whole lot better in the finals with troops back. We can beat them then. But we're obviously not in great shape to beat them tomorrow.

                      Good post Ox. Plus I was an Ox Baker fan.

                          Troll. Your team is not hopeless, but the part about them getting a leg up from the refs and judiciary all year is spot on and I applaud you for admitting your team's shortcomings. Well done.
