Our set-ups and structures allow us to win plenty of contested ball, we lock it in the forward line and I think our defence can handle Norf's talls.
They are just going and as each week goes, pressure builds on being undefeated.
Wish I could agree but logic says otherwise.
Jamo looked out at sea against both Dixon and Westoff and with Rowe needed up forward or pinch hitting in the ruck our defence will be up against it. North has Waite, Petrie and Brown as their key talls who all work hard up the ground and are smart in finding space and not flying for the same ball. Then add in that piece of sh1t Thomas plus Harvey even though he's nearly 60 he usually gets on the end of a few against us. Just look too small down back to hold them and without Krueze at least providing a contest against probably the best ruckmen in the comp they will get enough entries to kick a big score.
Then again maybe I will be surprised for the 5th consecutive week. ;D

Yes, I think of Leigh Matthews' famous quote after his last game, the 85 Grand Final - he said "It was a bit like fighting a war without weapons. "

I'm with Shades, I think we can win. Why? Just because of what I have seen thus far from our boys. "Its the vibe". One of the two streaks will come to an end this week, I reckon our fellas are keen to maintain ours and will leave nothing on the ground trying. And if we do win? To quote the Bristle:
"Boy-o-boy".

Heart says we can have a go, head says , we were struggling to match up before the last few injuries. So will be a tough fit. I know one thing if Jaksch doesn't play , then his cards might already be marked.
