Conventional wisdom is that heavy conditions suit teams with a big pack, such as the Giants. But I'm not sure that it works that way these days. Even in the days of the awesome foursome we seemed to struggle in the wet. These sort of games often seem to be decided by a couple of breaks by small nippy players, perhaps we might be better suited than in the past?

I think the wet weather could bring many advantages.

Orfords short kicking game may see the opposition stuggle to control the ball.

Kearneys illusiveness will open gaps especially if a player slips also Sheriffe with his running across the line may open up gaps in the sluggish weather. Not to mention the same with Readon and Halley.

The negative areas could be the new Aussies may struggle with these unfamiliar conditions. Also the game may see less passing to reduce mistakes therefore making it a forwards game.

I predict Bulls by 7 and Kearney MOTM, a drop goal seperating the teams for most of the game then a late Bulls try as the Giants throw the ball around in an attempt to win the game.

God, why do people do these obvious predictions?

Us by 10. Rikki Sheriffe MoM , or maybe Matty Orford

Bulls by 16.

Reardon first try.
Orford MOTM.

Possibly, we will certainly need to keep our mistakes to a bare minimum and hopefully Orford will keep the Giants pegged back with some clever kicks.

Can't wait now..
