If we can’t win this game, then we don’t deserve to play finals.

All our origin players should back up.

Roosters are all playing for bags and have no backbone this season. Prime opportunity for us to roll them.

If Fox and TPJ back up it will probably be Wilson to bench, Reynolds to drop out.. TPJ to start, Sutton to bench, Hughes to drop out..
NO way this will be side come Sunday.

I feel that's pretty close to the mark, with Fox in and Wilson to the bench. TPJ comes onto the bench at least, may start, but will interchange with Sutton.

Waddell moves to 2nd row, Knockonbor back to the bench, but will hopefully be out of the side in a few weeks when Thommo returns in Round 16.

Edwards to lock with Hughes and Reynolds to drop out.

How much are we paying to give away a penalty in the first 2 sets of the game?
We do have a few penalty magnets in the team and as always Waddell leads the way and not far behind him is Sutton.

This is going to be an unpopular opinion but I think we might need to go down the medical retirement route for RFM. He’s just not up to it anymore and we’d be much better off with a young prop in his place

This might also be an unpopular opinion but... why bother?
His current salary comes under the long-serving player part of the cap.
If you medically retired him, which means you pay him anyway but it no longer counts on your cap (if he even agreed to that), then who you going to spend that money on? No one else qualifies (yet) as the long-serving player.
I think it is (at least partially) why he was re-signed at all.

Good idea but as good as Gus is as a GM, I don’t think he’d be able to get Ray retired for having the flu

$3.50 odds is a bit rich... what does Sportsbet know that we don't?

Because people are thinking we’re without fox and tpj because they’re on the extended bench.
Good odds if ya wanna back the dogs which is fairly winnable considering how bad the roosters have been
