    There's a reason why it's smart money.

      Seems right... I chose Watson because he's quick but realistically it would have to be someone that plays most of the game from the start. Either way someone should be given the task of rushing Smith at every possible Occassion. Cut the head of the supply where ever possible.

        A friend who works for a big bookie says there's less maths in NRL betting than you'd think. Apparently they just do a 'who do you reckon will win?' around the office and that's usually good enough.

          While I agree it would be nice to separate Manu and Latrell, given how shit Fergo's defence is as well you are basically robbing peter to pay paul.

          Realistically the game hinges on whether or not these 2 young kids can figure out how to hold the line. If they do, we are every chance of winning. If not, we'll get hammered

            Aubu will cover Wil Chambers and I can see Latrell running circles around Curtis Scott as I don't think that kid is strong enough to with hold Latrell's strength as Dylan Walker struggled to do so.

            My direction to the forwards would be this.... KEEP RUNNING AT SMITH THE ENTIRE GAME, tire him out too easily which gives him no time to be in the referee's face, also he won't move so quickly from dummy half or to service Cronk or Slater.

              After all the crap the club has fed us, does anyone really expect SST, Friend , and/or Cordner to play. ESPECIALLY SST ?????????????

                  Not confident of a win, but hopeful of a spirited performance.
                  Thats all I want.

                    I love Latrell & think he is a top player but he wont run circles around Curtis Scott because Curtis Scott is to good a player for that to happen.

                      I'm a lot more confident in this game now that we have almost everyone back.

                      Latrell to have another blinder.

                          Granted. But I continue to cling to the notion that as a NSW/Aust representative player Fergo should be better defensively than what he has been and be capable of helping a younger player.

                            BallyChook , I cringe everytime we are asked a defensive questions out wide by an opposition, there is normally set defensive reactions to each attacking situation it is just that they don't seem to be reacting to the same incident at the same time or even reacting to attacking threats in the same way.

                            Sometimes the "old style " Verbal direction is more successful than telepathy.

                              Good luck with that, given Ferguson's usual action is to stand aside, let the opposition through and applaud his young centre if he manages to make the tackle. There doesn't appear to be any thought of actually assisting his young team mate to make the tackle ...
