Bunnies cop a blow with latrell ruled out, Cody Walker will play but only off bench. Another game we should win and heavily favoured in. Hopefully a good win 😅

Good news, Souths are completely different team with Latrell in the lineup. Still nervous though. Too many years of being a Parra fan and knowing that nothing is certrain, especially when we are favourites. I feel like the Parra of the past have changed under Ryles, but it's hard to believe and hard to get used to.
And sounds like iongi will start at 1, joash at 6, Hawkins the unlucky one. First chance to look at our future spine. Im heading up from Canberra, sorry, apologies in advance if I jinx em.
South Sydney are our ultimate bogey side. I won't be surprised if they win but it's pretty simple for us, if we win then we are almost assured of safety from the wooden spoon in 2025. 22 points is the magic number I think to avoid it.
"I agree, particularly when it is a kick for distance, but when we're in the attacking 3rd it's a telegraphed tactic.
I'm all for Lomax spooking the opposing winger when kicking for territory. "
"Good point, Coryn.
Despite last week's deserved win and our resilience, we still made enough errors (11 vs Cows 4) to lose it.
Dogs lost to Tigers and Roosters making 11 & 14 errors — our norm.
We've made 70 errors in 5 weeks."
"Joey, PT wrote that before we had confirmation Latrell was out.
Nevertheless, they'll still attack our right edge. I expect a Humphreys short kick or grubber behind the line for AJ or Duncan. Cows and Storm had some success three."

Let's not count our chickens before they have hatched. Souths are airways a problem for us.
No game is a gimme this year but you'd rather face Souths without Latrell for sure. Hes like their Mitch Moses

The Eels had better win tomorrow night because a thrashing may be in store next week against the roosters

Im expecting a comfortable win, that would be a nice change.
It all depends on our mentality. If we go in and play game and commit to it, we'll roll them.
