Storm are the best team in the comp.

Watching the Country v City game, some big hits on that for a glorified friendly. I hadn't watched it before, NRL scrapping it this year, that's progress I suppose? though the crowd for this is better than an awful lot of NRL games I've watched this year. I know people complain just how many people have withdrawn from selection but there's still some serious talent on the pitch and its making for a good game so far.

It's the Last one. It was great back in the day as it was kind of like a trial game for origin but it has faded in recent years alot of clubs won't release players to play in it. Shame as it was a great game to bring to the Bush.

That game was so good..did everyone enjoy rack round????

NrL are thinking of having a moving the round to Columbia in 2018

:D:D:D:D:D:D

Kieran Foran is off back to Sydney next season then, Bulldogs favourites to sign him supposedly. Hasn't pulled up any trees at the Warriors, like the rest of the team.

Foran is a super player but his off field **** would make me very cautious. He played wth Dessie before and has a kid in Sydney so maybe that'll settle him down. I'd rather they tried to sign Cronk next year who is also moving to Sydney. .. but he will probably retire or play for the roosters

brandnewaward · 10-05-2017 12:19am

Cronk to Souths , history with him and madge from Melbourne.....hope im right haha

kirk buttercup · 10-05-2017 7:38am

Foran to The Doggies is official now... Great player let's see how it goes

Tom Mann Centuria · 10-05-2017 10:32pm

Looking for forward to the Bulldogs and Cowboys tomorrow. Thurston is out for 3 or 4 weeks so that's a bonus.

brandnewaward · 11-05-2017 1:14am

Grub Renyolds out too , still gonna throw ten bucks on Josh morris to score first try and dogs to win

Tom Mann Centuria · 11-05-2017 11:07am

Soft, soft penalty to the Cowboys rubs out Bulldogs first try.

Tom Mann Centuria · 11-05-2017 11:40am

Fugly game so far. Bulldogs all over the shop, officials have been pretty crap (but equally bad for both teams)

kirk buttercup · 11-05-2017 12:07pm

The rollercoaster rolls on ... the doggies are so up and down it's ridiculous

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 5:41am

Awake nice and early to watch the Panthers take on the Warriors.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 6:19am

Good start.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 6:52am

Very good first half.

Reassuringly sh*t so far this half. Going to throw a huge lead looks like.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 7:27am

And there's the lead gone, disgraceful really, least it would be if you expected anything else from the Warriors.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 7:42am

Well this is pure *puke*, they should be ashamed of this half but they won't care sadly.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 8:31am

Hopefully I can enjoy this game.

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 9:12am

I don't like Cameron Smith. Just thought I'd share.

kirk buttercup · 13-05-2017 9:39am

Don't feel bad I dont like any banana benders

Tom Mann Centuria · 13-05-2017 10:18am

Well that was a fantastic game. What a finish.

Highest points Melbourne have ever had when losing . Cracker.

Tom Mann Centuria · 14-05-2017 6:19am

Knights lead didn't last long this half.

Edit: still playing great, healthy lead again with 10 to go.

Tom Mann Centuria · 14-05-2017 6:54am

Awesome, the Knights have scored again, they're going to win again, great performance, and the Raiders just can't travel.

Tom Mann Centuria · 14-05-2017 8:30am

Power nap and I missed the first 50 minutes of Roosters Eels. Looking at the score I think the Eels did too.

kirk buttercup · 14-05-2017 2:53pm

Raiders are a bit dissapointing this year like the Penny Panthers

Mr.Nice Guy · 14-05-2017 10:47pm

Brilliant game between the Storm and Titans. Warriors still struggling to put games away.

Happy to see the Knights get a win on Sunday.

Definitely some hard ones to call this round.

kirk buttercup · 17-05-2017 11:40am

ill give it a shot

Sharks v Cowboys - Sharks
Warriors v Dragons - Dragons , Warriors have been far to erratic this year
Broncos v Tigers - Broncos
Titans v Sea Eagles - ugh I suppose Sea Eagles
Eels v Raiders - this is a tough one both have been pretty poor - raiders
Knights v Panthers- Panthers
Bulldogs v Chooks- Bulldogs ( not likely)
Bunnies v Storm - Storm ... by a lot. they are going to want to get that titans game out of their system.

Tom Mann Centuria · 17-05-2017 6:50pm

OK, well here's my shot in the dark.

Sharks v Cowboys - Cowboys
Warriors v Dragons - Dragons, Warriors are head wrecking
Broncos v Tigers - Broncos
Titans v Sea Eagles - Titans
Eels v Raiders - Eels
Knights v Panthers- Panthers
Bulldogs v Roosters - Bulldogs
Rabbitohs v Storm - Storm

kirk buttercup · 17-05-2017 7:28pm

Warriors are head wrecking can't believe you decided to support them.

Yeah, I'd say it's one of the worst decisions I've made! It's not the fact they lose, they just don't really seem to give a rats arse.

That's not the frustrating part for me it's more the fact that one week They look invincible the next week they look like they are new to the game. Baffling and has been for years oodles of talent , fan base, and recruitment area all to themselves in a nation that is more rugby mad than Oz. Truely baffling

brandnewaward · 18-05-2017 12:06am

Greg Inglis been admitted to a mental health facility , poor bugger been struggling with been on the sidelines ....... gutted for the fella

Mr.Nice Guy · 18-05-2017 2:48pm

Great comeback win for the Sharks against the Cowboys.

Tom Mann Centuria · 19-05-2017 8:27am

Right, even though they've lost 9 out of 10 against the Dragons, this could be the year for another Warriors win.

Or not.

kirk buttercup · 19-05-2017 8:46am

I backed the dragon's but something is telling me the Warriors are going to turn it on today.Let's see.

Not so far defensively anyway. Their righthand side defence forgot to turn up.

kirk buttercup · 19-05-2017 9:42am

Good try to get before the break

kirk buttercup · 19-05-2017 10:20am

Sorry Tom mann but bloody hell the Warriors are soft out wide

Yeah they are, disappointing today but not a surprise, Dragons love an offload don't they. Ordered a Warriors heritage jersey (knock off) from China the other week which came this morning, so that's cheered me up slightly!

kirk buttercup · 19-05-2017 11:36am

Could be worse Tom you could be a tigpies fan like my brother. They're getting smashed . They are a shambles of a club

They were pretty atrocious all right.

kirk buttercup · 19-05-2017 7:00pm

Man James " jimmy the jet " Roberts is exciting to watch. Would love to see him play Origin

kirk buttercup · 20-05-2017 1:44pm

5 from 5 so far. Not bad

After I said it was hard to call round, clearly not! Your heart over your head today is ballsing up your clean sweep. (Think that's forgivable though

)

Tom Mann Centuria · 21-05-2017 8:59am

Doggies made a real games of it second half. Excellent game.
