I hope the Raiders win this..

If I don't tip the Raiders, they win, if I do, they lose - I will be none surprised to see the trend continue.

I love the look of the Tigers last week where the had Hodgson playing five-eight in attack combining really well with Prince and Farrah. Their pack is strong and I think they should get home over the Raiders despite being away from home.

I wonder how the news Schif is leaving has gone down with team mates, I think we might just see a out of sorts Raiders outfit here.

tigers to win by 18. I think there pack is strong as well as the connection between Hodgson and Prince

I wonder how the news Schif is leaving has gone down with team mates, I think we might just see a out of sorts Raiders outfit here.

I think the team mates understand the situation, you only had to see the media conference when Schif was holding tears back when he talked about leaving his team mates.

Id hope they are all still behind Schif, tomorrow will produce one of two outcomes, we will either come out and play really good, or we will have an absoloute shocker.. Although looking outside we have had a constant rain all day, which is forcasted to continue into tomorrow, which means slightly more conservative safety first football for both sides, something we are masters at..

The only thing i can guarantee you is that I certainly won't be putting money on the Raiders to win...

[BRONCOS FAN]

Yeah i think it will be a good game..

i hope the Raiders get up this week because they need some wins and i think that they are less threatening going into the finals than the Tigers...
