Our game against Rabbits is a must win.

This game must be taken seriously, we have this game then the bye. We will be missing Farah & Woods but will be welcoming Gavet back. The Rabbits will be missing Greg Inglis.

This game will be a big one, we are playing for a spot in the eight. The ladder is so close this year a loss can result in ending the round outside the eight and a win could put us in the top four.

I would start Galloway & Ava at prop, I don't rate Ava but he is a decent prop and we need Taupau's impact off the bench, we can not start him this week IMO. Simona & Sironen have been cleared to play.

After this game we play Canberra, then Penrith during origin. Can not see us beating Penrith as they won't be missing anyone and if we lose to Rabbits & Penrith we will be sitting outside of the eight. If we beat all 3 teams we will be sitting at about 3rd spot.

Simona & Siro is confirmed, not sure about Walker & Goodwin.

WOW that would be great if Teo, Mqueen, Inglis, Walker & Goodwin are out HAHAH
 
sammy burgess has been killing it. luke and burgess will take us right up the middle with woods and farah out.

missing farah in attack as well will not help.

hope we dont lose taupau to the swinging arm.

Yep walkers out.

I think Halatau should be selected at hooker purely for his defense..

Yeah totally agree… Potter should rotate between Austin and Halatau against Souths.

Souths did not panic after being man handled by the Warriors during the first 50 minutes of the game on Saturday - probably one of the best games this year.

They held their composure and did what they had to do.

This is where we are a bit weak and without Farah and Woods we are pretty much rudderless and Souths will be too good imo - even without a handful of players.
 
I can see the Burgi firing up and going straight through us, was at the game last night and from where I was sitting it looked like Sam really stood up in the second half when they lost all their troops. Not a good feeling about this one unfortunately.

Easy. Get Anasta to hit Burgess high and hard.

Burgess goes off for the game & Anasta misses the Raiders game. Win/Win.

Yeah I was there also. Very physical game from both packs, Souths will tear through us if they play like that again. And I'm sure they wont forget what we said after the last time we played them. Not feeling good at all.

and souths are so overrated it's not funny, they remind me of us in 2010 2011 play good in patches and go to sleep in patches in games, but can win a game by playing for 20 minutes,

It's probably too early to predict the Origin teams for game 3, but I wouldn't count on Josh Mansour being available for round 17 at Leichardt.
 
i said this before, is this is a must win then what ISNT a mustwin? seems like every week everyone says 'this is a must win' unless we're playing a full strength roosters team with half our team out or something.
 
I think we have any hopes of a top 4 finish its a game we need to win. Our next five: Souths, Canberra, Penrith, Manly, Canterbury.

Most would look at that and say, yeah we'll be in all those games but could likely only win one. Even then we'd be a shot at the 8 given how tight it is

W the storm and titans injuries I think they're a worse chance than us in making the 8 and I really think it's going to be a battle between those two, NZ, Parra and us for 7 and 8

I think you can throw Brisbane into group as well

Taking off my black and gold sunnies I think the Top 4 might be beyond us

I wouldn't right us off from 5th - 8th though

I reckon the Souths game will be a really tough assignment We won't catch them off guard a second time

In my opinion a lot will depend if Gavet is back or not and who pulls up fit

No chance Sirro will pass the cognitive tests with only 2 days available
