  To beat the roosters we simply have to play the full 80.If we play like we have the last two weeks,The roosters will put plenty of pionts on us.Geez they are strong everywhere.Put it this way we will know where we are at after playing them.

  If we play like tonight we are in for a flogging.

  59 - 0 will become ancient history.

  I don't agree

  If we play like we did last night we lose but it wouldn't be a flogging

  Back our boys to lift again as we are playing the premiers and will want to see what we've got. The Roosters won't make it easy but I don't think the Roosters have a lot more improvement whereas we do.

    I agree Frank. Our D has been good. But we still have a lot to improve on in attack

    Frank old mate - we played with a lot of energy and commitment but were 1/2 a metre off the pace for most of the game with little direction - that needs to be corrected.

    Looking forward to the Rorters, in a very nervous sort of a way - wonder which of Nick's refs will get the game?

    Klien and both Suttons should be relegated to u18s.

  I think we will defend Ok and that will keep us in the contest early on. However, if we play side to side without going through the middle they will eat us up and lap us.  WE can not drop off like we did when we did our rotation of RCG and Junior. This worries me becuase we need to keep coming at teh Roosters and I just know whether we are hardened at this stage of our development.  Quite confident of beating the Raiders the week after but Roosters is a big mental wall.

  The danger in winning last night is that we can go into this game relieved with the fact that we are 5-0 and it's OK if we lose to the Roosters and even the Raiders the week after.

  To me this is the time to really put our premiership credentials on the line and say to the Roosters & the Raiders we're coming for you. Don't play ourselves down, don't go for the underdog tag, let the Roosters know we are going for the throat.

    You see, I think we've got to lose that mentality, the "if we can win one of them we'll be happy". I think we've got to be saying that these next two games are going to define our season, win them both and we almost can't miss the top 4.

    Splitting them will be fine, losing both be won't be terminal, but we've got to approach these games as if they are both GF's.
