    Agreed. I'm not fooled.

    He's just talking us down which never hurts.

    I can never forget his clapping in the comm box when we sealed victory in the 2002 GF.

    Gus stills has love for the Roosters. He's just playing coy.

      We are in a great position to win through to the GF regardless of who we play.

      Fresher, rested, motivated, purposeful.

      I don't think it matters who we play. I don't think it matters that Napa is unavailable.

      Sure Latrell would be a loss. But all teams will have absentees or worse still, passengers who will play.

      I think fear of losing esp to Souths is paralyzing some fans...its unneccessary.

      I would much much prefer to be us than any other team now.

        To be champions you need to beat any team in front of you regardless of your injuries/suspensions etc....
        mid we are as good as I think we are, then we can beat anyone . Go Easts.

            I know you're not the only one, but we can't un-lose that game and this is a different team. And we have won a couple of prelims in the last decade ...

                    there is a fine line between pessimism and realism, after a streak of recent poor performances in prelim finals I'm not sure how you can be confident of winning without Latrell and Napa, also SST won't be 100% fit.

                      We are a different team this year,and the losses of Latrell and Napa on top of last years loss to the Cowboys will keep us on our toes..

                        Roosters website stated SST is expected to be fully fit in 2 weeks,I am happy to trust that..

                          I’m very nervous after 3 consecutive preliminary final losses. But if Mitchell gets suspended we should use it as motivation to show the FINGER to the CORRUPT judiciary and BIASED media and slaughter our opponents and be completely merciless.

                          This has been a case of TRIAL BY MEDIA and nothing to do with justice and fairness.

                          You can see a Slater fairytale send off being engineered by the NRL in all this if you use Origin as a guide.

                            Whats realism? Im not sure it even exists..

                            Optimism and pessimism do though.

                              Can’t Fergo convince his mate Dugan to admit he dived?

                                I guess the pessimism stems from experience.
                                To someone who's watched our games for years, it's obvious the game managers have an agenda against us. Losing Latrell doesn't help, but we have plenty of other attacking options.
                                At this stage I remain quietly confident.
