Pretty sure I read in another thread he's massively overrated, so that's good enough for me to not rate his inclusion.

Lol, I still trying to forget that goal after the siren!

good enough for me too.

This is our grand final - might as well go in positive. The worst that can happen is that we lose.

is on the down low incredibly impactful to their aerial defensive capabilities.

howe takes good pack marks but rarely kills contests in the same manner that moore will. frampton is… not good, and that’s where we should hopefully be focusing. obviously rain is predicted later in the game, so that needs to be taken into consideration but we may have a slight upper hand with that in mind

A role I would like to see Harry play but doubt he will is just stay on Sidebottom on the wing. Follow him everywhere. Harry has the pace to keep up. Has not got the footy smarts but if he can be disciplined enough he could nullify a lot of what Sidebottom does. Obviously it would be better to have a small do it. You could throw SEH that role and see how it goes but Harry is in and he could just follow him.

Moore is a big out against us. We have nearly always had issues as far as kicking the ball to him.

If 2MP can fire early it might force the Pies to either put McStay or Cameron back, both helps us.

If there was any game for Jones to fire it is this one. Floating through CHF might stretch them.

Also, Perkins starting to be very important.

Lots of ifs but we need to start well IMO.

Rain, Brad's talls, one of the umps called Hosking, yeah not looking good.

Jones marks like the balls a bar of soap in the dry, I hold low hopes in the actual wet.

Yep, that was a big if!!

Maybe the soap will wash off


Or maybe not.

Jones could have a turnaround game today.

 

[jannissary]

heavy seccy presence at the ground already

Going early today. Enjoy the game, one and all.
