Thats just more of the same from previous years, we need to break this stranglehold they have over us and win the game. Starting with a loss just puts pressure back on the coach and is the first nail in his coffin IMHO.
At best a loss by a goal or less might be seen as progress but a 4-5 goal loss is a decent defeat and I cant see the rank and file accepting that result at all.
The only things I can see upsetting the Tigers applecart is premiership hangover and / or issues around Hardwick's marriage breakdown. 3 of the last 4, and near full strength. Our list is starting to come together. Teague at this point has a W/L of 46% (46.43 for the pernickety ones) so we've still a way to go and we're not out of the woods yet IMO. I just try and face facts and base my opinions on that. Of course, supporters will have this or that demand, expectation etc., but that is a matter for them.
What's your hit prediction for this game brother Elwood ?
