    The Cowboys get us off back to back wins in Sydney - which has been the absolute Achilles heel of their club. They are building momentum and the recipe for a home win is simple, score 20 points.

    If they score 20, they win.

    If they make less than 15 errors they win.

    It they commit less than 11 penalties they win.

    So once again, as has been the case for the last 12 weeks, the outcome of this game has nothing to do with us and everything to do with the way the opposition play. Because, we don't do anything to actually win a game of football.

    Puts Henry in an interesting position, preparing to play his old team in a game where their performance might get him closer to another first grade coaching appointment.

    They'll win & I don't think we are even a slight chance to win another game this season....

    Tend to agree, Pete. We might be good for 1 more win this year though, but the circumstances would have to be as karnage mentioned, where the other team/s will implode and gift us the win.

    There is a rumour going round that Searle on his way back from the Caymans has brought in a juju man to conjure up another win ... along with an effigy of my avatar ... ouch, those pins really hurt!

    Flash can't possibly play another game at FB. If he must be kept in the team to kick, then at least put him back to his left wing where he does his best work. The other thing he should be used for is kick-offs. He has a low, driving kick even when goal kicking and he should be aiming for the sideline around the 30m mark at every kick off. Worst case, they return from the 20/30 instead of the 20/10m, best case we find touch, they knock it on or we regather when they try to smother it with their feet. It's a simple option for a guy who strikes the ball very hard and low. It would be a prick of a ball to pick up when it skims off the bounce.

    That's the best attacking play he has at the moment. I won't even bother with any defensive options.

    Carty said in the press conference Mead and Zilly should be close to returning for this game. If both are available, we all know who our fullback will be.

    Returning from Hammy, you couldnt put Mead back to fb as there is way too much running involved.

    I don't want to appear sarcastic but I suppose now we are truly away from home are we expected to win this?

    He's just going to put Zillman straight back there when he comes back. He doesn't even try to hide his love affair with Zilly.
