Thought maybe a good place to post for the upcoming NRL season.

This is the Warriors year!

(more likely play like origin one week and pub team the next)

To be fair though, I usually put the mockers on teams I back! Nothing against the Bulldogs, I actually quite like them (apart from James Graham who strikes me as I being a bit of a tool)

I am kidding no one other than doggies fans like the doggies it's something I have dealt with since I was a kid. Out of interest why do you support the Warriors?

Panthers v Knights - Panthers

Broncos v Raiders - Raiders

Manly v Doggies - Sea Eagles

Eels v Sharks - Sharks

Titans v Cowboys - Cowboys

Tigers v Storm - Storm

Dragons v Warriors- Heart says the Warriors, though tbh I think the Dragons will sneak it.

/uneducated guessing.

yeah the stadiums are too big but it really blows me away the lack of support at stadiums these days in Sydney (its much better in Brisbane and Melbourne , Canberra .) any way that's another conversation .

tips for this week boys :
South v Roosters - well as stated earlier I thought the chooks would win this comfortably, early days but I reckon they could be Premiers material.

Panthers v Knights - Panthers comfortably

Broncos v Raiders - this is going to be a dinger I reckon ,going to go for a Raiders win

Manly v Doggies - Doggies all the way

Eels v Sharks - interesting this one, I will go Eels

Titans v Cowboys - Cowboys

Tigpies v Storm - Storm by a lot... the tigpies are a basket case

Dragons v Warriors- Warriors for me

whats your tips boys?

Tom Mann Centuria

Roosters score again after Souths got on the board, couple of pretty forward looking passes in that Sydney try, back to 14 point lead.

Tom Mann Centuria

Not looking good brandnewaward

Edit:Rabbitohs much better last twenty of the half but couldn't score.

Tom Mann Centuria

Put this crowd in a smaller stadium and you've got got a fantastic atmosphere. Feck all atmosphere with huge empty spaces.

brandnewaward

not going to happen , we got Cody moving back to fullback , Sutton moved into the halves , Farah and Cook will team up and got a secret weapon in Moceidreke coming off the bench. kid is a beast.

Blake ferguson and jake friend both out injured , rumoured they both ruptured their vaginas at training

kirk buttercup

I think the Roosters are going to smash the bunny's

Tom Mann Centuria

Should be a cracker tomorrow morning, Rabbitohs will have to make do without Hunt, Burns and George Burgess who've all picked up bans. Don't think Burgess will be much of a miss, the games I've seen him in, he's been decidedly average.

Keary has looked good since Souths gave him the elbow and he ended up at the Roosters, dare say he'd like a good showing tomorrow to prove a point. Fancy the Roosters tomorrow (kiss of death).

Sounds like player power helped get him the boot (Tedesco, Woods and few others out of contract at end of season supposedly said they wouldn't re-sign while Taylor was coach?) haven't watched the Raiders thump them yet, but even so, after 3 games its pretty unusual to be sacking someone, even in football you'd get a couple more games, especially after they beat Souths first game.

Yep that was a shocker

4 from 8 I knew it was going to be tough to tip this week. Some huge upsets this week like the dragon's did not see that coming

kirk buttercup

C'mon you Doggies!!!

Tom Mann Centuria

Huge win for the Titans.

Tom Mann Centuria

Fair play to the Titans, brilliant effort to hang in there against the Eels, and manage to get to half time all square. Not sure they'll last the distance but great effort so far.

Edit: well they've been excellent this half again. 6 minutes left, 12 in front. Some brilliant goal kicking from Taylor.

Tom Mann Centuria

Excellent defence showed by the Bulldogs in that game, a deserved win, Warriors as painful to watch as ever. Getting feck all value out of "home" field advantage, one win from three.

brandnewaward

Funny enough , I ended up watching the game with a bunch of actual NRL refs (long story) they reckon Gerald Sutton had a bad game but the Bunker stole that disallowed try. The momentum carried his arm over the ball as it hit the line , but he still maintained downward pressure with his forearm......try

Video ref decisions maybe went against them, penalty count of 7 to Broncos 14 suggests decisions otherwise didn't go against them. I didn't think they were robbed but were unlucky not to hang on, with the manner of the winning try and don't think the ref had a particularly good game.

Yeah I watched it I didn't think they were robbed either. Apparently Munster broke his jaw . Storm look the best team so far ,you're right its going to be hard to beat them

kirk buttercup

didn't see the match but the reaction on social media is the broncos were robbed. I will watch it later

Tom Mann Centuria

Not a Broncos fan but they were pretty unlucky not to hold out. Poor discipline and officials who seemed to spot a lot more of their transgressions than the Storms.

Tom Mann Centuria

Good game so far this morning, Broncos just about hanging in there against Storm, one way traffic more or less apart from the breakaway try. 8 6 to Melbourne half time, and Billy Slater is back after a year.
