Call To Arms - this is OUR moment

Posted by The French Fullback #1 on August 27, 2017 at 10:02pm

5 weeks left. First finals in 8 years.Playing for the Top 4 this week. Guaranteed a home final at some point. Hop on the wagon and let's get huge numbers to every Sydney game. They are all home games for us if we outnumber the opposition. How do we know when our next finals will be? After such a long wait, what could stop the Blue & Gold Army coming out in force?It starts on Friday. Must win. This is what the team have worked towards all year. This game. Surely we can crack 20K+ and get the boys home? It was 12 years ago we last finished top 4.We've all had our doubts or reservations at some stage this year, after a loss or injury, but now, the team have shown they can be a Top 4 side, and are SO close. No more doubts, this is genuine title threat team we have and they deserve a wave of support. Blue & Gold NEVER FOLD.

Let's not get to far ahead of ourselves, but seriously top 4 , you'd have to be the ultimate optimist to have predicted this

  I predicted it at the start of the year. I also said a few weeks ago that the top 4 was now gone. So basically I have NFI.

  I predicted 4th - 6th and i dont think it was too optimistic, i think we will be 3-4th next year at this point.

  At the start of the year I thought top 8 would be a good year. Any better than 6 was an overachievement. Really this has been a rebuilding year after loosing Peats, Junior, Wicks, Foran and IDG. Big effort by the players and the coaching staff.
  
  Given that the critical mass of this team will be together until 2019 there should be better years ahead as they grow in experience and confidence

Poppa predicted minor premiers he must be about to hang himself.

I'll be on a plane from Melbourne as the game is being played on Friday night. Otherwise I definitely would have been there.

The implication is clear. No-one turn up and we've got it in the bag. If you love the team you'll stay the fuck at home

We rank 10th in home crowd average. For a top 4 side with 24K members, it's not yhe best is it?
