Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Panthers

[2000bluester]

Not sure about you all, but I'm getting goosebumps just counting down to kickoff, almost feels like a GF. Waiting for the final line up to be confirmed, I don't expect the starting 13 Robbo named to be the same 13 running out onto the field, there will be a reshuffle of some sort, possibly Sitili or Liu moving to the bench for Angus...would make sense for Gus to start and bringing on Sitili later on with his powerful running at tired forwards.

The more I think about it, the more confident I am we will prove all the doubters out there wrong tonight!

How weird is this. Driving to a final that is not at our home ground. Our car was telling us to turn around and we weren’t getting directions.

That’s a better bench than what was on yesterday.

Am I the only one who feels that if we win tonight we go all the way? I don’t see anything stopping us if we win tonight

[Johnny Brass]

I feel better seeing the team line up with Gus on the right edge and Mr Fix it Aubo on the bench.

[Tommy Smith]

Strong forward pack. Very strong bench.

Angus a sneaky bet for MotM. He's an animal.

If we win tonight we win the comp imo.
Lose and we're toast.

Already took him for Churchill mate !

[Stewie Griffin]

Bit risky not playing Lam tonight...Robbo must have a specific game plan in mind though. Freddy needs to play 80 and pray for no injuries in the halves.

Strong team, Aubo definitely adds steel for us

[SouthWestChook]

We still have to beat Melbourne in the GF. They're a lot better than they have been the previous 2 years. Don't think we beat them easily.
