Why we will win

[Leroy_The_Tigers_Fan]

Canberra has enthusiasm and momentum. Wests have desparation and resolve.

Desperation!, we are but Desperado's :righton:

I am not trying to have a go but you are kidding if you think only 3 or so of there guys would make our side. There forwards absolutely smashed our forwards last time at Leichardt. They made that many metres while we didnt really have a heap in us. Dugan , Croker, Monaghan and Campese are all great players, whod easily be in our side.

TLL, Shillington are close to two of the best forwards going around. There support party of Logan, Picker, Tilse also are very very strong runners of the ball.

so you'd swap lawrence & ayshford for croker & monaghan ? benji for campese ?

:question:

Lawrence is the best centre out of all 4 of them. Monaghan is next and even Croker I think gets ahead of Ayshford who hasnt been great this year accept the last few weeks.
Youd have Vidot over Ryan.
Youd have Benji over Campese, but youd have both of them in the halves and not even consider Lui or Mcrone.
Youd have there two props.
And probably a mix of the bench between some of our forwards and theres.

we will win because we are due. 5 years out of the finals is a long time between drinks. We will go down to Canberra as underdogs and ambush the raiders. Marshall will play, lawrence will play, Ayshford will play so to Ellis. Tigers 1-12, get on it

Still not convinced Croker or Monaghan are better than Ayshford. Lawrence in my opinion is a class above all the other 3.

Call me crazy I just have had a strong feeling all week we will win. I get more confident every time I hear a Raiders player talking about their great record over the Dragons, the Raiders players think they have already won our game. The Tigers will turn up and if we either get to a good led early or the game is close for a long time I have a feeling the Raiders will make a lot of errors under pressure.

As long as we don't drop the ball, and exhaust ourselves on defence, we're a bloody good chance of winning this! Come on boys!!

this thread has created some interest on the canberra raiders' forum. its actually quite funny reading their proposed teams if our squads were to combine :laughing:

My thoughts exactly NZ
We hold possession, play to our best, we should win.
Maybe tactics like the Titans game, kicking on the 4th each set (changed when prince went off)

I think if we score more points then Canberra that we should win

Just watching fox sports news and they said Benji is 7 wins and 0 loses against the raiders. I feel a little at ease now. Hopefully he can tear them apart tonight!

Alf, you certainly are insightful…

yep, right up there with another post i read that said: "this is a season defining game" :laughing:

 

[Eye_Of_Wests_Tigers]

I think waiting five years for this will be one reason as well.. i don't know about you blokes, but being knocked out in straight set's won't be on the boys thinking

 

[Starcraft]

As long as all the boys go out and give their best that will do me if we do that we can win for sure, I would hate to see a so so effort in this game not that i think it will happen

ARCHER MAXWELL AND HARRIGAN not confident at all
