We will win if we play the full 80. Simple as that in my opinion.

Our problem is that we are only playing 40 minutes of footy at the moment.

If we can hang onto the ball, get repeat sets on their line, and have guys like Eastwood, Williams and Graham offloading to guys like Reynolds, Jackson and Perrett we will win. Its just a matter of whether we make this happen on not.

We will also need to restrict the impact of Bromwich, Koroibete, and Cronk.

We have beaten them before this season so it comes down to whether we turn up on the day. Given our piss poor attitude in the last month this is a completely unknown factor.

our piss poor attitude will be rectified because it's a final.

Quietly confident about this weekend. Can't believe the shit people on here say, bagging out Hasler saying he should be sacked, seriously?! When was the last time we made the top 8 three years in a row? We have a good team, yer we might not have the firepower of other teams, but we will compete and be in with a fighting chance. Look at the rabbitohs game, nuffies on here saying we'll get done by 50, we turned up, we gave it to them, and we were the better team, unlucky to lose.

If we turn up with the right attitude (we will being semi final footy) all we have to do is steamroll them. Run straight and run hard, there forward pack does not even come close to ours. We have a game that is suited to semi final footy, we have a big forward pack that can grind out the win against anyone.

So how about all you "supporters" stfu about Hasler, how we havnt signed a FB (a good one isn't available yet) stand up and be proud, cos Sunday will be a fantastic day for the club.

Their pack is pretty good too tbh. Our forward strength was the fact that we could have Graham and Tolman starting then bring on Kasiano and Browne/Klemmer and the go forward would still be there.

Having a strong bench to go with the strong pack is why we dominated a lot of the other teams forward packs.
