    Tigers vs Storm was a very tense one.

    Pleased for the Warriors. That's the kind of game I think last season they would have let slip from their winning position.

    Ponga impressive again for the Knights.

    Titans beat the Sea Eagles today, and Eels lost again, today's loss was to the Panthers. Its now Parramatta's worst start for 27 years.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    The table at the moment probably looks upside down compared to what most people would've predicted at the start of the season.

    I sure am. Even putting aside Saints it's good to see some different teams at the top.

    I think the week in week out unpredictability of it all is fascinating, and teams playing exciting, expansive rugby are doing well.

    Titans seem to be a much happier outfit without the Hayne distraction and Parramatta by contrast seem to be all over the place.

    Lot of difficult to call games again this week. Sydney derby should be a good start to the round.

    Roosters Rabbitohs game is a cracker.

    Bunnies got the bounce of the ball a couple of times second half, but deserved the win. How they weren't a mile in front after the first forty I don't know. They cut the Roosters to bits and went in all square.

    Nice try by Latrell Mitchell but not much else to celebrate for the Roosters. Damien Cook deserved Man of the Match for the Rabbitohs.

    Certainly looking the real deal. Still not getting excited it's too early. I was reading Dragons fans are buying up GF tix already. Let's see what happens during origin b4 getting excited.

    Love Dufty's injection of pace. Smoked the Sharks today.

    Gallen got a nasty looking injury in that game. Seems Sharks are now without him, Fifita, Wade Graham and Luke Lewis after that defeat.

    Heads up that tomorrow morning Sky Sports Arena is showing Cowboys vs Bulldogs from 8:30 and Raiders vs Eels from 10:30.

    I'd say those are the most viewer-friendly times Sky have shown NRL games since they got the rights.

    :eek: is all I can say about that half for the Cowboys. Bulldogs playing them off the park, scored a try with 12 men and a drop goal. Lead 19 nil at half time.

    Edit: finished 27 - 10.

    Another shocker from Thurston. Did he play on a year too long? I'll be shot if anyone from Queensland sees me type this:P

    Eels poor again today. Some big hits that were close to being dirty especially from the Raiders first half imo.

    The defence from the Bulldogs was very good, especially in the first half. You could see the Cowboys were running short on ideas.

    Eels so bad right now.

    Disappointed the Warriors winning streak ended but still a cracking start to the season.

    Doesn't get easier, next up it's the Dragons.

    Dragons V Warriors should be good. Eels are a complete disaster something must be going wrong there. There has been rumors of unrest.

    Signing James Maloney is looking like a super bit of business by the Panthers.

    Wherever he goes the team seems to lift. I don't think he gets the credit he deserves sometimes. 2 titles with 2 clubs doesn't happen too often.
