You have 30 seconds stood in front of the team before they go out...what do you say?

It's 17 men vs 17 men. Stick to the game plan, keep your heads, never give up. Good luck.

And don't kick out on the full from the kick off after a try.

Leave nothing in the changing room, put it all on the pitch.

I don’t know what to say, really. Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives. All comes down to today, and either, we heal as a team, or we’re gonna crumble. Inch by inch, play by play. Until we’re finished. We’re in hell right now, gentlemen. Believe me. And, we can stay here, get the poop kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell… one inch at a time.

Now I can’t do it for you, I’m too old. I look around, I see these young faces and I think, I mean, I’ve made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make. I, uh, I’ve vexed away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who’s ever loved me. And lately, I can’t even stand the face I see in the mirror.

You know, when you get old, in life, things get taken from you. I mean, that’s… that’s… that’s a part of life. But, you only learn that when you start losin’ stuff. You find out life’s this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game – life or football – the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don’t quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don’t quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They’re in every break of the game, every minute, every second.

On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that’s gonna make the f****** difference between WINNING and LOSING, between LIVING and DYING!

I’ll tell you this, in any fight it’s the guy whose willing to die whose gonna win that inch. And I know, if I’m gonna have any life anymore it’s because I’m still willing to fight and die for that inch, because that’s what living is, the six inches in front of your face. Now I can’t make you do it. You’ve got to look at the guy next to you, look into his eyes. Now I think you going to see a guy who will go that inch with you. Your gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team, because he knows when it comes down to it your gonna do the same for him. That’s a team, gentlemen, and either, we heal, now, as a team, or we will die as individuals. That’s football guys, that’s all it is. Now, what are you gonna do?”

We don't take any $h1t Off these today. Straight in from the off and turn these F***ers around. these smelly inbred B*******s think they've already got it won! They're laughing their heads off they have another 'easy' final.

Wipe that stupid smirk off of that fat headed ****'s face today the arrogant P****. There's 25,000 Fans out there all wearing the same colors you've been wearing all year, you're heroes to that lot. If you're under the pump look at that crowd behind you. I'm sick to death of other fans singing 'its always your year' and taking the P1$$. After tonight no one can sing it again. Get yourselves fired up now and who takes the first ball in from them F****** give it em, hit em that hard they're thinking twice about taking a carry all game.
