Round 21 - Rabbitohs vs Storm
Friday 3rd August
7:55pm
ANZ Stadium
Top of the table clash with the Rabbitohs.
We are coming off the hiding we gave Canberra. The Bunnies, a 6 point win against the Eels. The Eels stayed true to their 2018 form and sh*t the bed big time, collapsing and conceding 3 tries in 9 minutes, when they should have had a definitive win.
As we have seen all year though, form means sweet f all, last week is forgotten and this week is a new week. If you want two points, you better show up ready to fight for them because in 2018, nothing comes cheap.

Rabbitohs line-up the last two weeks;
1. Alex Johnston
2. Campbell Graham
3. Hymel Hunt
4. Dane Gagai
5. Robert Jennings
6. Cody Walker
7. Adam Reynolds
8. Thomas Burgess
9. Damien Cook

13. Sam Burgess
14. Adam Doueihi

Pretty solid line-up. Strong starting forward pack. Bench isn’t great and can see the edges being exploited once we earn the right up the middle.

Definitely feels like the kinda game where we start on the back foot for many different reasons and can't get ourselves into the game.
With how often they go down their left edge, Suli is going to have to make a lot of decisions defensively that I am very much not looking forward to.

Yeah your right blazza18, coaching staff should be focusing on Suli to just mark his man ... A man on man defensive game for Suli, the Storm team are that good they always have players cross covering. Suli should never feel the need to come in at all, unless he makes the read that he can make the sure spot tackle. Fingers cross he plays another cracker of a game.blazza18 wrote:Definitely feels like the kinda game where we start on the back foot for many different reasons and can't get ourselves into the game.
