Read on the friday DT an article about the Riff - how the genesis of current team was their 2015 Holden Cup team which makes up 7 of the current FG squad including Cleary and Jerome Luai.
Article talks about it's similarity to the great Man U team of the 90's where 7 of their squad came from their champion junior side blah blah and then all the stuff about being mates, flatting together, the comraderie and playing for each since young blah blah etc
Then I looked up the Easts 2016 Holden Cup side which beat the Riff in that memorable GF (which included some of their 2015 players) and notice that our current FG squad has 5 of them: Manu, Butcher, Faumasilli, Radley and Toupinua. But of course a team of latte sipping sombrero wearing softies would never have mateship, soul, spirit, comraderie, never say die attitude.
Nah.. we've got something better. Our blokes live by the Roosters Way. Much better.
Could well be a 2016 Easts Holden Cup winners v 2015 Penrith Holden Cup winners GF.
Easts to win.
