    All of whom have played only 1 game.

    Bevan is 7th best, after 7 games.

    Paul Bevan    76.4
    High effectiveness is not surprising when most of your possessions are uncontested sideways chips. If you look through his stats he's probably had effective contested possessions in only 2 games and his effectiveness on CP will be no more than 40%..

    The last one against the Lions looked great.

    That was fun - tho the Lions fans got a tad grouchy when we did the Mexican wave while one of their players was stretchered off.

    I see this as a confidence booster to get the season back on track. Or at least that's how I'd like to see it.

    Davo's unique flower child, non-violent style would play the entire Bombers backline into form and confidence. The greatest Bloods forward since Bob Pratt would need something less intimidating than the looser than Paris Hilton's undies defence, to find his confidence.

    We will win this pretty easily I feel.

    They apply very little pressure around the ball, which is why our skills deteriorate against decent opponents.

    We should play our normal style against them. It will cause plenty of turn-overs and we'll have little resistance on the turn around.

    If the crowd gets over 35,000 it will be a miracle.
    I don't know if there is anything else on at Olympic Park that day, but I always think a good guide to crowd size is the availability of P1 parking and that was booked out last Thursday when I tried to book. So it may be a good deal more then expected.

    I distinctly remember the crowd that night, it sounded more like 60,000 in the last quarter when the game was tight, probably because most of them were 'real fans'. I guess losing the bandwagoners has its advantages
    Yep, I think that was me.
