    If Kikau plays he’ll no doubt be looking to run at Young. Dom’s ’attempt’ to ‘tackle’ him last game was an absolute disgrace. He’ll no doubt be wanting to make up for this as well as his send off.

      We lose way to many games we shouldn't - especially with our outstanding roster.

      The Dogs are crap - we are not.

      A big win today is on the cards.

        I think it’s going to be a tight game.
        Go the Chooks.

          We need to start making Gosford our happy hunting ground, it's been anything but to date.

          Lot more rain around than anticipated although Gosford hasn't copped what the Eastern Subs has. Even Randwick races called off! Forecast has some rain predicted for game time lets hope stays away though. Wet track makes it closer and tighter.

          On paper it looks like an NRL vs NSW Cup team. But as our earlier game this year showed it means zip. We have a similar looking team today. Burton scored 22 points against us last time incl 3 tries, limit his chances. Expect Mahoney and Curran etc. to bait Jared, Vic and Cheese. They know they need to put us off our game to spring the upset.

          We need to get into the scrap early and be patient. If we keep building pressure we can finish over the top of them.

          Robbo needs to get Sandon some better game time this week. Must be a shit to prepare all week and not even get on the park.

          Nothing less than a win will suffice today lads.

                  We need a big game from May. He’s been a bit quiet lately for mine. I’d like to see him play longer minutes and lift his intensity today.
                  Us included there is a huge opportunity to take that 4th position. Dolphins showed last night it’s no fluke they are where they are given their roster. It’s time we start to emulate that kind of spirit to be genuine title contenders rather than a mistake ridden inconsistent mediocre excuse justifying team capable of so much yet delivering little on a week to week basis. Sounds harsh doesn’t it? Robbo talks about “clarity” . Looking forward to seeing how “clear” we are. Bring it

                  if we play with the same intent and spirit as those 2 teams last night, it won’t be close

                    There's a lot to be said for watching the replay the next day........................result depending of course.
                    I still haven't recovered from the cowgirls loss and can't digest the fact that they decreed it's now illegal to tackle around the legs.

                    Wonder how brave I'll feel this arvo.
                    Live games are gonna give me a heart attack.

                    What's there to be said about watching a replay the next day?

                    If your able to watch a live game then watch it.

                    The result will stay the same.

                    You prefer watching delayed wins over live losses?

                          I’m in the ground. Pissing down. Reserves 18 minutes in. Knights just scored. 18-0.

                            Watching live losses is a very horrible experience.

                            Nearly as bad as the Central Coast stadium today.
                            "Stay dry" said the guy on the PA system while the rain was pouring down as I walked out of the ground after the first game.
                            About "5" seats undercover...where is the funding for this ground?

                            No wonder fans stay home and watch games on tv.

                              What's going on with our lower grades. Sure there's a heap of players missing but our club wouldn't be alone in that regard.

                                Roosters claiming it’s a full house. Many on FB struggling to give tickets away. I have 5 but only using 3.
