2020 Finals Week 3 V Storm: Game Day

[Smurfette]

Just saw the plane fly over. I don’t think I’ll be ready to watch in under four hours, let alone if I had to play the game!

Illogical inconsistencies upset me greatly, so I learnt very on in this pandemic to let all that go. On the bright side: we’ve got an epic prelim in Brisbane that doesn’t involve the broncos.

Not to mention they’ve been in a bubble and followed strict protocols all year as opposed to the general public.

The hours before a game is tough.
But I gotta say Raiders Twitter is awesome.

Havili and Lui to start. Need to match their impact off the bench.

Reckon they've timed that pretty good. About 30 min to disembark and get on the bus. 30 min to Suncorp Stadium. Means they arrive at the venue about an hour before they head onto the field for warm ups. Not a lot of dead time where the mental fatigue can kick in. Fresh mind, fresh body.

Rapana, cotric and bateman running at brenko Lee and vunivalu is going to be interesting

You could not make this **** up.
Stupid Queensland Government grandstanding to win an election...
I hope the NRL remember this when they cry for a QLD grand final....

[raiderskater]

So nervous. Very unproductive at work today. Heading up to a club to watch tonight, atmosphere should be electric!

Go the boys!

[Raiders666]

Andrew Johns not rating our bench at all It's actually one of our strengths

[Bay53]

We will be having a special preview edition of GH Live at 6.15 Canberra time then will be back after the game.

Might miss this game to watch the Greta Thunberg documentary.

You **** would too. Fire up 1992.

Idk why but whole day it's barely even hit me that we're playing a prelim very shortly. Very weird. Got a disgusting Storm fan of a housemate too so one of us are gonna be dirty tonight but I'm barely thinking about the game right now. I must be a psychopath.

Big crowds on Caxton Street, and lots of green!

Absurdly confident.
Think we're going to have a good win here tonight.

LFG!!!

[The Greenhouse]

The Raiders have won the toss, looks like they will run to the southern or Milton end in the first half... if we're interpreting the sign language correctly.

[gangrenous]

Absurdly confident.

Not confident at all. Hoping you’re right for once!

[1992]

Ennis calling out the wimpy Labor government for what they are.

Starling is a hunk with his shirt off. Dude is ripped!

[Northern Raider]

Absurdly confident.

Don't think I've ever felt so uncertain. No result would surprise me tonight.

[BJ]

Confidence has waned as the day has gone on. But I’m glad the players are mentally stronger than me.

[Northern Raider]

At the ground now. Lots of green already in the crowd. Could even outnumber Storm supporters. Just about every Raiders fan in QLD will be here. Except Nickman. He's soft.

[Botman]

Boys. When have i ever steered you wrong?

[T_R]

For what it's worth, traffic from the Suuny Coast was absurd....some of the worst I've seen. Would have been two hours in the bus.
