    Yeah, plus Manly were sh*t.

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

    Warriors got their third win. Some really average plays but exciting none the less (particularly as NZ won).

    This one has a bit about it, Tigers not lying down and having their tummy tickled.

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

    Warriors sh*t second half but fckin officials were absolute dross. Hard to be bothered when not a single call went their way.

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

    Tigers didn't get much help from the officials their game either.

    The officials on and off the field have had a shocker almost every game this round. Needs looking at but it'll be head in the sand from the NRL as usual.

    Good game this, enjoying it.

    Neither team seem to want to win it!

    Warriors win yesterday over the Tigers was a nice surprise!

    Kicking game from both teams has been sh*t

  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    That was some game between the Panthers and Roosters.

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

    Absolutely amazing game of rugby that.

    When the Panthers are on they are a joy to watch but I'm still not fully convinced by them. Storm still the team to beat for me

    Yeah, you're probably right. Couple of other weird games that round too, Knights just disappearing after a good lead, South's battered them, and Sharks actually looking quite good against the Raiders and then back to what everyone expected of them, nothing.

    Wasn't really expecting upsets from either the Sharks or the Knights. Think there is a big difference between the top 6 and the rest and they were just making up the numbers really. Two cracking loser goes home games coming up this week. Think the Roosters and Raiders is nearly too close to call. Think the Rabbitohs will account for the Eels.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    I don't think the way they've played this year the Raiders have enough to beat the Roosters (unfortunately). I'd like to be proved wrong though, it'd be nice to see Canberra progress.

    Souths tomorrow, but I think it might be reasonably close.


    Edit: Great from the Raiders so far.

    Edit 2: Roosters needed that try before halftime, right back in it.

    Great stuff, delighted.

  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    Gutherson, even though I find him a bit irritating has played fantastic there, surprising last 20 of that half, Eels just exploded. Which will make for a great 2nd half.

  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    Gutherson fupped it up, effectively finished as a contest with that drop.

    The six-again rule is a stroke of genius. It really turns league into an end-to-end game. Already fearing a drab winter with nothing to watch on the weekend mornings!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    Too one sided so far today.

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



  • Registered Users Posts: 10,893 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    Disappointing.

    I'm watching on iptv, but think it's on Sky Sports Arena.

    Unconvincing win, don't think the Storm will be too worried.

  • Registered Users Posts: 325 ✭✭MUFC91CS


    No think the Storm are more than the two point favorites PP has them at.

    Looks like Cam Smith will be done after this season too. Hard to take to him but have to respect him to still be going the way he is at 37.

    I don't really like him tbh but he has been a superb player. What's worse is when he retires he'll be all over RL coverage in Aus. I just hope Channel 9 sign him so I don't have to watch him.

    Grand Final in the morning, starts at half eight (but presume that's just the dreadful build up nonsense to the game first, singer etc.

    Hope Penrith win but I'm expecting a comfortable Melbourne victory.

    Penrith lost their way in the last 10 mins of the first half - will need to play a perfect second half here to draw or win.

    Was closer than I thought it would be in the end, but Storm did the business.

    First Origin game tomorrow, feels a bit like a damp squib but hoping for an unlikely Queensland win with Mr. Charisma at the helm.

    thoroughly looking forward to it. Actually like the fact its being played at the end of the season and not interrupting the regular season itself. NSW by 6
