I wont need to worry about missing the Grand Final the same week as my grandson is due (or vice versa).
With now ruled Curnow out, my guess is Gov will miss as will Durdin. Young to CHB, Cincotta to a pocket, Kennedy to CHF.
Int Lord Binns Moir Carroll
Fantasia the Sub
Out Gov Durdin
In Saad Fantasia

Thats the problem, stopping their run.

If for nothing else, I want to get the win this week to see Doc make the most miraculous of recoveries and get into the side week 1 of finals.

Thats the problem, stopping their run.

I watch the Saints up close every 2-3 weeks and if we can't beat them then we don't deserve to play finals.
They are not efficient, over use the ball, and their defense is very loose.
Stop Marshall and they will struggle everywhere else...I'm expecting to win after they initially stifle us with the Lyon game plan but can't sustain it for 4 quarters...

For the record Fantasia hasn't played since round 17 and has had no part in our poor form of late.

The classic difference between what is causation and what is correlation.

You could say over that same time you could say we almost always do the opposite of what the bookies want.
Perhaps we are doing a '95.

or perhaps its simply coincidence in both cases.

I'm listening to that SEN podcast now - interesting to hear Hoyne say McKay to CHB.

Finally got around to listening to it.

Nobody can see an issue with McKay having the turning circle of a truck?
Would be lost way too easily if he was playing a lockdown defender.

However, if he plays as a ruck, while he is rucking, he could park himself across CHB as a loose man an be effective.
....but im not allowed to talk about non-rucks rucking.

I said Fantasia has nothing to with our recent form.

100% EB, problem is they have been a bogey side for us in the past and they have the tools to beat us (especially given how depleted we are). As you say, its a "final", if we cant beat the team that's placed 13th, we dont deserve a finals birth.
