I hope we go into the GWS game with our hunting commitment... ruthless intensity at every contest with our best possible side. Personally, I don't give a rusty FK what any other side is up to, only us and our next opponent - that's all that matters.
We’ve got the pre-finals bye coming up (it still feels a little strange that the bye will apply to us ?) and that’s the only break we need.
The only changes to the team should be to accommodate returning automatic inclusions or to replace players with injuries that restrict their ability to play at their best. Of course, that doesn’t include Cripps - at half rat power he’s still worthy of a place in the team. A week won’t do much for damaged ribs anyway.
At this stage of our campaign, I think that it’s important that we maintain momentum, stay ruthless and get games into our returning players.
