GAME THREAD: Steelers v Clan: Playoff Q/Final - Sunday 13th April 4pm

Let's hope they're correct, although I can't see it.
To get through I think 3 things need to happen.
1. We need to play with pace. When we do that, teams struggle to live with us.
2. We need to execute clinically on our opportunities. We're superb at it when we're comfortable in games, but really struggle when we're under pressure, like we will be today.
3. We need to remain responsible defensively, with 2 players covering back at all times. It was ridiculous on Friday how often we got caught short. Gamble in the last 5 minutes, but not in the 1st leg of a two leg tie.
Hopefully we'll not be missing too many bodies, because that could be crucial, especially if we're missing forwards. We're not a well balanced team, with too many import d and not enough import f. Obviously circumstances dictated that, but it is an issue.

The first goal could prove crucial this evening. Sadly, we have all too often given up that first goal which has put us on the back foot. If we do it tonight it really will be an uphill struggle. Even so, I'm going to remain optimistic and expect us to get through
