This is it

[redwhiteblue]

Never in my life time have we played Souths in a finals match[ think the last time was 1938], I was hoping it would stay that way.
I am very nervous about this game.

Welcome home!

Not nervous at all. After falling asleep and giving up a 30 POINT lead against the Cows I honestly feel like this week is a bonus. I think the boys will be more relaxed as well and know if everyone gives 100% and gets the basics right we will get the cash.

Roosters to beat Souths and Bulldogs to beat the Panthers.
Current State of Origin halves will battle it out with dumped Roosters' pair.
Roosters' halves will win the game for them.

We play for 80mins, we win gallantly.

The way Easts have been playing of late doesn't instill a lot of confidence, if they've fixed it maybe the thing that Souths haven't prepared for?

I am surprisingly relaxed.

I don't think I've cared less about a game in my entire life. Not because I don't want the Roosters to win but because I know they will. Next week, different story.

I do not want to play Penrith in the Grand Final.

There is no Todd Byrne or Scott Sattler playing if East get through against Penrith
Still have nightmares about us playing the Bulldogs from 2004, the image of Hegarty standing clapping thinking that El Masri was held and El Masri getting the ball down, still to this day I watch that try, was it a double movement ? I'm not sure but Hegs could have gone a long way to preventing even happening.

I agree with Gus Gould`s comments,"if the Roosters play to there best for the 80 minutes they will win.They are the better team and have more points in them, they just need to play for the full 80".
If both teams play to there full potential we are home and hose.

Welcome home!

Thankyou, will give you an update soon, just getting all the washing done now, great flight back, no hiccups, very tired though.

[Tommy Smith]

I am surprisingly relaxed.

That confident?

My confidence is tempered by Ben Cummins and my fear of losing to these carnts.

Well I am very nervous too. I haven't felt this way about a Roosters game since the 2004 GF either. I'm glad the media are doing nothing but talk about Souffs though. Keep talking them up, keep focusing on them guys.

[roostersrule2]

If we win this, we'll win next week.

I'm confident but nervous, we're a much better team then Souffs but will we turn up for the full 80?

I'm not sure I could stand bowing out to Souths, it would be the most painful of losses. Though I have confidence in the boys to win it.

Roosters 24-12

I tend to agree with The Sack at the moment. I have been zen-like for the past 2 seasons to be honest. Today I'm very nervous. I think we are the better team but we will need to minimize our errors and complete our sets. **** the referees. I think they are incompetent, not cheats. We've got this thing. Chooks by 12
