10 verses 12 - it’s one of those must win games but they all are now given our position on the ladder.
Everyone expects us to win - everyone expects us to rock back into the 8 and play finals
I am not so confident on both those fronts.
The Power have rediscovered their Pepper Pig. They have gone in short, without a key ruck, does that unbalance our team.
Have we sacrificed some speed and forward pressure for extra grunt around the ground.
Its going to be a slog and I reckon the Thursday game has arrived a bit early this week for some reason, I am not quite in the game day groove but I hope we turn up and settle into the game quickly after the bye, one of these teams will be a bit slow to dust the winter bye break off, hope it’s not us.
Perfect weather for winter footy, a bit cold, no wind, moisture in the air but no rain but it’s slippery under foot and therefore the game is played like a wet game.
Can we do it for Capt Grimes 200th and the first gamer.
RFC DNA to continue, expect us to grind out a 3 to 4 goal lead and then watch the pepper pigs get back into the game and we are left to fight out a close one.
To close to call is my prediction.
……but we will win the free kick count.
