Round 1 vs Sydney Roosters

[Equaliser]

Looks like I'm ahead on 4 and against so far.

So much for that.....

 

[Red]

1. Parramatta v Melbourne: Melbourne by 10
2. New Zealand v Newcastle: NZ by 8
3. Penrith v Brisbane: Penrith by 16
4. Manly v Canterbury: Manly by 4
5. NQ v Canberra: NQ by 10
6. Cronulla v Souths: Sharks by 2
7. Dolphins v Roosters: Roosters by 8 (just being realistic.)
8. Tigers v Gold Coast: Gold Coast by 10

I guess this means I'm ahead at this stage.

Are the Donkey's much better than we thought or Penrith nowhere near as good as we thought? I guess it's a combination of the two.

Broncos definitely defended very well. Showed a lot of resilience and intensity for pretty much the whole game which they really only showed in patches last year. In saying that, Penrith still look very clunky in attack.

Before the trail games i thought Penrith would win the minor premiership. After, I changed them to 3rd. Now I'm thinking 4th or 5th. Api Korasau makes such a big difference.

5am start here. Coffee in bed. The Fish tank looks great and respect to the person wearing the furry dolphin costume in the crowd they must be sitting in a puddle of sweat.

 

[midlands hobo]

Marshall-king you beauty!

 

[Jetty]

Well done to the Hammer. Game on!

 

[midlands hobo]

Nearly spat my coffee when they both went down injured.

So what was the spread on a half time draw? Few pennies in the pocket for someone

 

[treadstone]

JMK out of dummy half has been immense for us. SOS is leading the guys around the park really well.

Hope we can keep it going for the next 40

I was happy about signing him. He has been criminally underrated for a while. One of the best in a very poor Dogs side.

No idea. I don't gamble personally.

 

[Axel]

The Hammer has to "run" back with his kick returns. Not jog slowly and quickly surrender.

 

[midlands hobo]

I'm gonna say it now milf enjoy another week in q cup.

 

[Red]

Halves are doing a job getting forwards running at Keary and Walker.

 

[midlands hobo]

That is top draw vision.

 

[Axel]

Looks like we are pulling away. I never picked it. I was hoping they could keep the score respectable.

 

[midlands hobo]

Stone unlucky. I thought he took an arm around the face then had the ball slapped out
