St merge are a very well coached side but I believe that our side is more skillfull. If we can tackle well and mimise their pack then I reckon we could win this one easily. If we bring our A game then we'll win.

My major worry is the discipline for the whole 80 mins,if we can stay focussed for the majority of the game we'll win!
We have the Merge covered in terms of skill and class,but they play like a machine for 80 mins,we need to match that.
Im not sure if our side can stay focussed throughout the whole game!

This will be a test for Brian Smith as much as the players. He will need to have them motivated and focused for the whole game. He will also need to use the bench to ensure we maintain momentum and don't give the Dragons a sniff.
I can see us either sneaking home in a tight one or getting blown off the park....

We can out score these carnts.
If we want to win we need to hold the pill, like we havent done for the past 4yrs.
And defend especially in broken play. Coward just waits for that few seconds lapse in concentration and carves away.
Play for 80 mins, cos we know The Stains will.
Big ask really at this stage IMO.

You know it makes sense.

This is the game that tells us if we'll be the real deal or making up the numbers come September.
I don't think we will win, personally. Dragons are in fine form and if it wasn't for the undeniable fact that they will choke again, they would be my picks for the Premiership.
Hopefully we're at least competitive and maybe we'll get up. I would give my left nut to see us win this

If we bring our A game thats spot on. You just wonder which Roosters team will turn up though don't you.
