    Sharks and Knights had a great game, thought it would be a comfortable Sharks win, was anything but.

    Yeah I caught that game. Knights pushed them closer than I expected.

    Well I decided to show commitment (or stupidity) to the cause, and got up at 5 am to watch the Warriors, good game with the Titans so far.

    Warriors defence non existent as usual though.

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

    I nodded off at half time, but had it on time shift, so was only about 10 minutes behind. Great game, good win and lower mid table written all over them.

    The warriors are a strange case , they have a huge amount of talent play amazing footy at times but more often disappoint than excite plus the catchment area is all theirs. They should be doing better. But well done in beating the titans today ( I tipped them)

    They need a coach who does the grind and hard stuff, they rarely look interested in that side of things. Get decent crowds, in sensibly sized venues too.

    Mannering makes a difference when he plays, and hopefully, if Kieran Foran stays well, he'll have a positive impact too.

    I managed to catch the Broncos/Roosters game. That ankle tap moment was epic.
