If Farah was playing i'd be 100% confident of a win. Without Farah im 50/50\. He is that important to us!
This game is important cause if we can win it, it WILL give us the respect we have earned. Not only will we have beaten another top team this year but we will have done it with only 12 of our potential 17 regular first graders. (injuries to Farah, Sirro, Teddy, Sue, Kapow). It would be a great victory in itself to win against Parra on Monday, it will be a greater one to do so without our 9 and 1.
When we get up on Monday we will no longer have the 'fluke' tag thats attached to us now as it was in 2005 which allowed us to sneak under the radar into the finals. We will be genuine contenders for the 2014 title and all teams will be on notice to aim up against the Tigers cause they know they will be battered and bruised after facing us for 80 minutes.
