Is there a place where we are sitting? Would like to sit with fellow fans but just going to grab whatever is available at the moment. About to spend a packet on my son and I going to a Raiders GF

Bennett doing us a favour - says there was nothing in the paps tackle, not even a penalty.

I don't care the cost. I'm going
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

That’s a problem we have at the moment we need to convert the goals esp the easy one.
If Croker even nailed just one to put us 8 ahead all the pressure mounts on Souths but when you miss it gives the other side a pick me up. I’m sure it’s just his confidence he isn’t striking the ball cleanly...maybe Sezer ?

Im more concerned about Wighton's shoulder and Joey's shin. But for now, I will enjoy the moment.

I don’t give Joey much chance but hope Jack will be ok. It looked like an AC joint issue but he should be ok

Me too. I was saying to Mrs Fui that the cheapest seats I could grab was $260. She just said “So what? You’ve waited your life for this.” And that’s why I love her.

To think the last time we made a GF, I was a 10 year old, chilling back watching The Lion King. And now here I am, 35 and chilling back watching The Lion King
Feel free to call me RickyRicky StickStick if you like. I will also accept Super Fui, King Brad, Kid Dynamite, Chocolate-Thunda... or Brad.

There’s a moment after Papalii scores where Wighton and Whitehead miss him, end up in each other’s arms and faces and shake each other with delight.

Amazing.
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.

I would have said he’s gone the way he hobbled off, but NRL physic is saying if if a contusion he might be back but if it’s a strain he’s gone. He says he hasn’t seen good vision of it though.

Not sure what a contusion is but cheering for it!

That defense when Reynolds was getting repeat after repeat was amazing.

And now I'm walking around all weekend the biggest grin ever. And as a bonus we get to watch Storm/Roosters beat the piss out of each other.

So damn proud of Ricky and the boys. A monumental effort tonight. A well deserved GF appearance.

Love this club..always will

Rabbitohs fan here (registered to make only this one comment).

Great game by your boys, and a well deserved victory. The defence was outstanding.

Best of luck in the big one. I was there for ours in 2014 and it was an incredible day.

Also, nobody actually likes Easts or Melbourne. I'm sure all of us are behind you.
