Really need to take advantage of the fact Souths are down Arrow, Tatola and Mitchell for this one.

Conditions here are also good for going a bit more expansive if the guys can keep their discipline with their handling.

It’d be good to get a win in the bank here ahead of a clash with the Roosters who’ll likely be missing Tedesco next week.

Is Walker opposite Munster or Pezet? I believe its Munster. However, He is our danger man, get in his head and the games ours, but give him an inch and its a tough night.

I am less concerned with Illias, I think Pezet would match him physically.

Big game in the fwds for sure. Need the support from Olam, X, Warbrick and Reimis again

Yea that’s an awful decision. Maybe it really is time for Bellamy to go.

We need the size and he picks Anderson over sims? Joking right!!??

How Anderson even gets picked over sims, pene & howarth is beyond me. We need the size and aggression on the bench especially with NAS out already..

I can’t get over how a player the size of Coates can put so little punch into his runs. Doesn’t seem that smart either.

Boys playing pretty well but not sure what they were doing on that last tackle/repeat set we got. Harry and Munster need to be smarter. Also ending up with a tired Harry kicking on the last from a stand still isn’t good either.

1/2 time
I like Trent but gawd I want to put my foot through the Tele every time he lays so long in the tackle. What do we think about his Rugby Union style mauling the ball carrier forward? Joey's on to it and doesn't like it, guess what we're going to be pilloried over next week? (But it's perfectly ok for 3 men in the tackle to push a bloke back or sideways)
6 again (and again and again), why not take the tackle and re-set, grrrr.
Welch might as well not be out there
Olam doesn't look quite overly keen to run in to the line
When is a leg pull not a leg pull, oh wait, when the Bunnies are doing it
Haven't we dodged a few bullets on our left edge. Get the timing right in the second half and there's points in it for the Bunnies.
Everything is crossed for the second half!
