    Pearce is a massive risk. You need Hastings on the bench to cover him, but against this Dogs side you want 4 forwards on the bench.

    4 forward is unnecessary.

    I already think Liu & Aubusson get less minutes than their ability deserves.

    Chooks, too quick on the outside. Forward packs are pretty even in this game tbh.

    The weather will play a huge part in this. I'll feel much more confident if it holds out, if it doesn't and we get into a dogfight (pun intended), that's where we will capitulate.

    Pearce ruled out apparently.

    So Hastings to 7 and Matagi to bench?

    I think that's what they said on the radio.

    Reckon Roosters by 8. Though I have no idea what to expect from the Dogs tbh. Hope they both put on a good show anyway.

    I think we'll really miss Pearce, even more so in the rain.

    If we win it'll be on the back of keeping the Dogs to a couple tries or less. Need a huge focus on defence

    Yeah huge blow. Just exemplifies how costly our loss was last week as he would've had an extra week. Weather looking much more positive now. 40% chance of rain but mostly late morning. It was supposed to piss down all day today but didn't even rain till a couple of hours ago so the weather reports are fairly unreliable these days.

    Anyway, huge focus on defense but also sustaining pressure. I'm fairly confident on the back of repeat sets we can use our speed men to crack their defense. We have been slightly better at looking for repeat sets since Pearce has been injured so I'm hoping that continues. Need 10000% better direction from Maloney though. No more letting forwards get the ball at first reciever on last tackle

    Not having a legit goal kicker will hurt the Dogs.

    You could count the number of legal passes Cook has done tonight on one hand tbh.

    So just like the guy he replaced at the Dogs. Makes sense.

    What an absolute fucking drop-a-thon. My god some of this has been downright disgusting to watch. Intense though.
