Considering our major fullback issues, no major signing since last year and our half pairing to be considered not even in the top 10 of the comp.

Great fcken effort from the boys in last 3 games specially coming back from a mammoth game 5 days ago against the warriors and winning again here against the top team in the comp.


Egg on my face and other doubters.

i knew barba was holding us back
I didn't want to drop his name so now that you have isn't it amazing what can be achieved with commitment and dropping a bit of ballast. On paper we are a weaker team than last year but we are miles ahead to what we were, good to be a team again.

I always wear Blue & White glasses so I always expect a great effort.

We are pretty much full strength and the results are showing!

I thought this will be a rebuilding year of sorts.

I chose the egg on face option, but to be fair, I never gave where we would be at round 7 any thought.
I did however say we would be a 7th place team thereabouts come the end of season, so time will tell, but I am more than happy to be proven wrong

The round isn't over yet, the titans will likely re-take 1st position.

We have been very scrappy the past two weeks, and the last three games could have gone either way.

Never the less, these early wins will do us very well come finals time, and the boys look to have instilled a never give up attitude.

Once we iron out some of our mistakes, and improve our structure/direction, we will trounce anyone.

I was happy at the start of the season to be 6 or possibly 7 from the first 10 rounds.

If we beat the Knights we might even get 8 from 10!

I am sick of losing to them hicks, the rubbish their fans go on with when they beat us is unbearable to say the least.

I didnt think we would be doing so well... its a nice surprise.

Still a long way to go though, but i am liking the fact we are finding a way to win the close ones, last year we were losing the close ones

Well to be honest i never really care about where we are on the ladder until after origin, because thats what really matters... the first half of the season is pretty much just the building phase imo.

I thought we would be up there all season but yeah probably not first.

In Titans defence though I think they will be back to first after this round. And I thought they would get the spoon.
