    I'm fairly confident about tonight if several things pan out. Obviously we need Lillyman and Myles to start well. The middle third really needs to hold it's own, which it did surprisingly well in Game 2, after Scott went off and without Parker.

    Hopefully Cronk isn't underdone because our right side has been non-existent in terms of team play.

    And if we get a fair shake with the officials, particularly in the ruck.

    Thurston better wake the fuck up tonight.

    A woeful 2.5 game series so far .....

    Yeah he was really bad this year. By his standards, it's definitely his worst series.

    Thurston was underwhelming.

    At least most of the other guys stepped up though. Our forwards (except Dave Taylor) were pretty solid.

    I think Taylor has been really unlucky. In game 2, his pass would have ended up being good with a winger there instead of McQueen. In game 3, both knock-ons were similar to the penalties players like Gallen or Burgess would receive instead.

    Still, he has some sort of curse on him and probably shouldn't be selected again.

    Nah he has a loose carry and backs himself too often. All his fault. His family hates him.

    A little of both I think. Yes he does have a loose carry and is prone to the odd brain snap, but fmd both those dropped balls could have easily been called a strip in other circumstances.

    He started well and looked to be going gun....those couple knock ons knocked the wind out of his sails.

    Again....we're watching probably the most frustrating player to watch in the modern game. For your own health, you can't afford to back him.

    Why did Gillett get so few minutes?

    Because Geurra and Te'o were playing so well I guess.

    He's dire but he had a really good first half IMO. Won't ever play again anyway so you don't have to worry about it.

    Guerra is an absolute gun.

    Gillett should aspire to be like Guerra.
