Crunch time

I know its only early in the Potter tenure however ,in my view, I recon this game against the dragoons could make or break our season. This week will be all about committment, overcomming adversity in the form of injurey to key players and cashing in on our form against the Melbourne Cheaters. Potter will only have 6 days to get the boys up for this one. A win and our season could take off and we will have anounced our intention to compete however I fear a loss could see us slip into medeocraty. Yes sir for mine this one will say a lot about our character and that of the new coach. Also I thought Bellamys comments after the game were even more tastless than his usual rantings. If a team plays realy well and compets you should have the decency to give credid wher due. Thats what I recon.
 
The newness of the halves combination (AGAIN!) may be a weakness for us tomorrow. Having said that I am keen to see what our attacking structure will look like. Don't expect miracles this week. However, if our defence stays strong we will give it a good go. Robbie to play a blinder!!!!!!

Every win move you up and every loss down. I just hope they turn up like last week.

It is still early days in the season.
 
This is one of those must win games, we just cant afford to drop one game against teams like the dragons and also need to jag a few wins against the better sides. If we loose than we will be down with Penrith fighting for the spoon

x 2 If we want to even think about challenging for the 8 these are the games we need to win

We aren't likely to go on a six or seven game winning streak late in the season and make a run for Top 8

Actually I think that,s exactly what could happen….with all these injuries and changes to the squad and the younger guys getting a go there could be a real run in the second half of the season. But that depends if all the guys can get back on the field other than the top 3or4 teams the rest are beatable on a weekly basis.
 
But we still need a good 5 wins from the next 8 rounds (incl. a bye) to be in the 8 and that will make everything SOOO much easier come round 20ish when we are comfortably in the 8 with (hopefully) an almost full team.
 
It would be great to beat the dragons who have always been difficult for Wests Tigers to beat, it will be an important win as we need as many as we can get with the rep season not far away and the likelihood that we will be missing Farah and Woods both of whom will be big losses to our team.
