We are a far better outfit this year compared to last year.
Mitchell is a massive out but our defence can keep us in the game. Stopping the Burgess boys limits the damage Cook causes and will be a key to the result. We are rested and they had a tough slog last week. Teddy around the play the ball will cause them problems. If Toops and Fergo have good games without any stuff ups I think we will get the chocolates in a tight one.
Easts to win

Of course their forwards are battered and bruised. We will also come out 200 miles an hour but after 20 mins and with 20 to go our freshness be obvious.
The one positive for me is that Napa was relegated to the bench before being suspended and so was Maubs. We still have all of our forwards available on that basis. Also, Fergo and Toops both act as front rowers these days, so we won't lack go-forward in attack.
Remembering Souffs' bench is Hunt, Marray, Clark and Britt (all pretty damn ordinary) I reckon Souffs may be in for a surprise. Their assumption will be that:
- a bunch of big Burgess boys, Crichton and Sutton can bash the shizzle out of us
- Cook can run straight through the Middle
- Reynolds can do lotsa pin point kicks
- GI and Gagai can make up for their lack of a real FB and wingers
IMO we have more weapons than them. Also, their reserves, FB and wingers are absolute krap.
