Okunbor is a good player. However he seems to lack a bit of confidence. He has to realise just how big he is,
and what he can achieve with that huge body. Once the confidence comes and sticks, he will be very good.

This will be an interesting game

Dogs can't score but can defend
Cowboys can score but can't defend...

If our defensive effort is same as last 2 weeks especially, then Cowboys have no chance to beat us but score wise it wont reflect this..

Parra needs to win to keep their top 4 hopes alive - Fergo is back and the Broncos have lost Pangai Jnr and Turpin due to suspension. Parra will win im 99% certain.
Dragons are playing for redemption and I'm predicting Ben Hunt to be back in the side as hes named in reserves. Ravalawa also looks to be back.

Im worried about the Titans vs Knights game - Its Old Boys day up their in the hunter but withthe coach fiasco i wonder which knights team shows up, The one that got hammered by the Tigers last week or the one that smashed the cowboys a week earlier.

The overall record is decent because we never lost for the first 10 years or so years we played there but our recent record up there is pretty bad up until last year we hadn't won up there in a long time.

Nah... No one expected to win 6 out of our last 8 games to be realistic we were never a chance to have all those results go our way while winning our remaining games. I hope we can win our games but we will finish between 9th and 12th.

Cowboys have returned to their level with out Thurston. They could jag a win but they have been terrible for the past 2 seasons.

Lewis needs to have a better overall game, his defence is great but he is terrible with ball in hand. Kicking game has been MIA since he played the Roosters.

His confidence in defence is needed in attack - it is obviously missing. What is he doing to address this lack of confidence he seems to have in his passing game, especially. When he releases the ball, it looks awkward most of the time, like he is overthinking and trying to self correct the direction and force he exerts as he releases the ball - the result being the pass going slightly behind or hits the ground etc. This needs to be addressed ASAP because he will go to another level with confidence in attack.

He poked his head through the line last wk with 2 runs... Kid really needs to step up his dummy go if he wants to really test defensive structures.
