I'm hoping that our no risk style of play will win out. Briscoe could be our match winner, I think they are much more capable of breaking the line than we are, we need his one on one defence to be at it's optimum.
I agree with you that our kicking game is very very important, but then, with Dobson in our side, when isn't it.
And hopefully, it'll be better than yours...
WTF are you on about skinny ar5sed endless optimism? - all my posts indicate I think it will be a close win - stop being a pr1ck.
As for our no risk style of play - FC's tactic will be five drives and a diagonal kick to the corner. If any team is gonna go wider of the ruck earlier in the tackle count it will be us.
What I don't understand is why folk seem to think FC's pack is bigger and better than ours when Rovers is far taller and heavier man-for-man whilst being fitter.
If the team gets a fair crack in the penalty count and a fair share of the ball then I expect Rovers to win.
