I see we're premiering a doco on the 2002 Premiership...
And I also see a lot of parallels. An underwhelming season from a team loaded with talent. And now a demoralising losing streak where now all hope appears lost.
But through it all, flickers of hope. We outplayed Penrith. Missing key talent and robbed by Sutton. A few weeks earlier we would have beaten the Storm had Keary not gone off and Sitili not dropped a try cold.
If you dig deep enough, the embers of something special are there. This is a team that has had zero luck for 3 years now. Not little luck, I mean literally ****ing zero luck.
But if that changes for a few months...
If Keary manages to return. And JWH and Lodge fire to form a formidable monster middle rotation... If Rads and Angus pull their fingers out...
If we contrinue to play through the middle like we did vs Penrith with Teddy, Manu, the halves and hooking rotation firing...
And on the end of it all is the best wing pairing in the comp.
If, IF... the ingredients are there. The competition is sludge and wide open. It's possible. I believe. But best of all, I'm not too fussed if it doesn't eventuate.
