I can't see us losing this game.

This will be a real indicator of where we are at. I think everyone on this site believes we should win this and win it well but at the same time there will be an underlying feeling of dread. As has been the case many many times before these are the games we drop. If we truly have improved as a team the buck stops next Saturday.
C'mon blues, let's break the cycle of letdowns.

Last time we were bullied by Zeibell and Cunnington. Big Goldie will be a problem..

Think we'll win it or at least we bloody should.  Ziebell out will help.  Blues by 12

Big Goldie will be a problem..

I think Pittonet is better suited to competing with Goldstein than that Ladhams kid today, the more aerobic types look to have Pittonet well covered.

Goldstein is fit but he is not fast, he won't get the same separation that Ladhams got.

We play next Saturday at 13:05 at the 'Gabba. We still can't manage a free to air game.
I hope we can come back from the disappointment. North haven't been playing well.
Unfortunately, that is usually when we stuff up.

I hope we don’t. We have to find a win in this game. Surely.

Mods, I started a pre game thread for this match earlier. Please merge the two.

Thanks.

Big test for us.  This is a hallmark play a team into form game for us.  North have been woeful this year.  In the past, we would lose this one badly and wonder what happened.
