Finals hype thread

I remember previously in the year, our attack was struggling so AOB got the players to run their own attacking training sessions that week, which resulted in a huge win over the Cowboys I think it was...

Why don't they try that again?

Who's hyped for the finals!?!?

First time playing in them in back to back season since 2002/03!

Looks like we'll be playing Parramatta, do we have a chance?

Can we at least improve on our 46-20 loss to Souths in week one last year?

LOL been telling everyone who will listen!

Was it Brown or Obi who first said we need to be regularly playing finals before challenging for a title, well I won't say 2 is a trend but if we can do it next year its proven for mine.

Hopefully we begin to be a club that you know will be in the 8 each year, good chance we could be facing Eels and Roosters in consecutive who are definately beatable.

And 5 in a row whens the last time we did that!

Likely to be full strength except for Lee and Fitzy as well.

Loving life.

I think we have to rest our spine for next week, and maybe a forward or two. I know it’s not good for momentum etc, but could you imagine losing Pearce/Ponga to an injury for a nothing game?

We are not Melbourne, we are not a team that gets a second bite, even though it hasn't been great wins we can potentially go in six in a row, we cannot afford to lose our momentum. If your fit or even half fit we need to have everyone on the park next week.
 
We can’t afford to be resting players now. Especially not Ponga or Pearce as they’ve barely had any game time this season.

The Broncos game is one where we need to test some creative attacking plays rather than playing structured attacking footy.

I’ll be happy if we make it to week 2 of the finals, being there two years in a row is already a treat!

Yeah I’m indifferent about it. I can see the point of batting on. I just know if we lose Pearce or Ponga to injury. We are done.
 
We could lose players five minutes into the finals match ... like we did with Joey in 02 vs the Dragons. No point worrying about that ... we can definitely use another match at full strength to gel a bit more before the Parra clash.
 
We are going to beat Parra. Different vibe then last year. I’m now leaning towards full strength against Brisbane. Make a statement and hopefully eels coming off two heavy defeats
 
Looks like the rooster lose Manu and Bunnies lose Lattrel for the finals.
I guess we'd play one of them if we make week 2

Robbo was hilarious.

Mitchell should be gone for 3-4 weeks.

We're in full Bradbury mode.

Are you referring to press conference he called out Henry penara our favourite lol. And told the guys in the bunker should get out of there if they can't do the job properly. Ha ha I see a big fine coming but good on him.

I'm totally gonna imagine this playing in the background every time a decision goes to the bunker now, along with a few juggling clowns and a trumpeting elephant 😂

 
If we beat Parra, I think we'll play the loser of Penrith v Souths in week two. If we beat Souths, I think we'd play Melbourne, as I believe those top teams swap sides of the draw after week one. Of course I could just be making stuff up.
