Bastard of a Preseason

[Bansai Pipeline]

It's a bit of a truism that a strong pre-season sets the foundation of a successful season.

It's also been well-documented that our pre-season hasn't been ideal.

We played all the way up to to October for the GF, then the majority of the squad played in the World Cup. Being Kiwis, most of them played the entire thing. Add into the mix that ridiculous 9s tournament, and then the World Club Challenge... that's a lot of footy.

Come round 1, it's pretty clear we're underdone. Behind the 8 ball.

How long will it take for the team to hit its straps?

And how big a set back is it?

Don't panic just yet Bansai son.

We'll be firing at the other end of the season, I'd put my lefty on it.

Hopefully we'll jag a win by 1point next week. As long as we're firing by the Manly game, I want to smash those pricks.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not panicking.

I just think its pretty clear we're underdone.

Wondering how long it'll take to get our shit together.

I reckon another three or four rounds to be honest.

Probably luckily we have Parra and Broncos which are winnable games.

Neither are winnable If we play like last night

I thought that too but Souffs are a top 4 side, they were shit hot and it still took them 75 minutes to put us away.

We won't kill those teams but we have more than enough to beat them.

Totally agree. They obviously were underdone. Nothing to fear at this point as far as I'm concerned. If they are playing like that in 6 weeks time then we need to worry.

What happened to you Mr Wong???

You're so rational and cool these days.

I find it kinda unnerving.

Its the good herb backwards Nah seriously I am still very satisfied with our glorious premiership year of 2013. Yesterday didn't matter. We are the premiers and lol@souffs. We are a classy team and it just seems ridiculous to get upset over losing what in reality was a nothing match imo. I'm still a maniac though. I just got banned from another forum today if it helps to ease your mind hey and like you I have learnt to :0 :0 It really helps dealing with some of the ****tards running loose on the internet.

Robbo is a long way behind Madge on how to better use the ruck rule changes...
