Looks like heavy showers on Wednesday,spewing..

remember a few years ago when the game was suspended? Did us no favours

I’m only relatively young, but ANZAC day 2013 is my all time favourite game. Period.

It wasn’t a an all time classic like the 2010 semi v Tigers. It wasn’t a grand final victory or even an important victory.

But it was possibly the best game of footy I’ve ever had the privilege of seeing live, and on such an honourable occasion.

The roughly 8 minute or so period of time where we scored 3 tries (Aubusson, Jennings, Minichiello) without them touching the ball was perfection. We were untouchable. Invincible. What a game.

I remember it was hailing and Rein scored just before half time,we never recovered..
Hope it’s different this time around

Great move by Robbo,extremely important game as we need to win otherwise Saints jump 6 points clear..

Hope so mate..
Weatherzone 48 hour forecast is generally spot on,but I’m happy to believe otherwise..
Dry track we smashe them I reckon

[rozza]

I'm quietly confident about our chances on Wednesday if our forwards get into the faces of the Dragons forwards and pressure Widdop & Hunt were a good chance of winning.

[Johnny Brass]

I hope it's a dry fast track both teams will be pumped for this. A real good test for us to see how we are going against one of the premiership heavyweights, I love the Anzac Day game it should be a ripper.

[BUDDY]

A little worried that our massive defensive effort last week could possibly leave us a little flat this week.
We have had less than 50% possession in every game this year. We need to complete far better than the last few weeks.
No confidence at all. Will be happy with a one point win.

[Johnny Tobin]

I think we win in a close game where they slow it down by kicking penalty goals non stop.

[Johnny Tobin]

Is there a pre match?

I think there’s some Army footy match.

[Arties Pie]

Roosters to win...Go Roosters

Nightingale thinks our tactics will be to slow them down by giving penalties away and spoiling the game (like the Warriors did).
I think he has forgotten his team does the same thing and milks every penalty under the sun,hope we smash these pretenders.

One time he faked an injury in his leg to buy time. By the time their trainer arrived he was holding his other leg. They are a disgraceful club. And I hope we really burst their bubble.
