Interesting game coming up, pretty important one too.
Our record at the Magic Weekend is beyond abysmal, apparently we have won only 2 in 8 games! Jesus.
We have the edge in the forwards on paper, them in the backs and halves and Kelly's timely boost return will give them some X Factor. Looks like Campese's dinner suit will be at the dry-cleaners this week, so look out.
Is Westerman due back? If so not sure who he'll drop as Whiting got big raps last night from Radford.

Tough game. Plenty of whining from the east about injuries but I expect kelly, lunt and a forward to come back for them with sio making a lazarusesque recovery to play. Their big problem is up front but that just means they'll move the ball wide where they're dangerous anyway.
They've had 2 decent results away from home in the last 2 games with all of these injuries so I don't expect it to have much bearing on the game. If we defend well we can win but I always worry with rovers as they seem to get up for the derbies better than we do but I suppose it's the small club, big neighbour mentality which we can't do anything about.
Very close but if we let campese do what he wants again we'll lose

Doubt we will have any forwards back we will probably play the same way as last night throw it wide at every opportunity as we can't take on any packs up the middle it worked in the first half against leeds think you may have too much for us at this moment in time
einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result
