We MUST beat the team that finished on top of the ladder last year, with an injury list in double figures, when we are sitting at 2-2 (in the 8) with plenty of games left in the season.
Why is THIS week a must win?
....because we have 80k members? Are we going to have them next week.....and the week after....and every other game this year! Is every week a must win game??
People are really losing their grip on reality with Teague/Port at the moment.
That makes sense Kruddler. However, every game should be a must win game for us, regardless of the opposition. Saying that we must be "in the game" is not good enough.
Rather than his usual bland, two bob each way stuff, Teague's message should have been:
Quote:"These are the games that we need to stand up in," Teague said on Thursday.
"We played quite well against them last year ... we know they're a good side, but we're a better side than we were last year.
"It's progression. We want to win these games. We showed last year we can compete with anyone and our next challenge is to get a win over Port.
"They're the games you've got to be able to win."
Teague admitted he was a fan of the style of Port, who sit fourth, ahead of the Blues in seventh with two wins and two losses to open the year.
"They're a great team. They're a team I enjoy watching play and the way they play. The challenge for our group is to play better footy than Port and I am confident that we will do that."
