    TRI-NATIONS I (2006) AUSTRALIA v GREAT BRITAIN

    Sorry for the delay. Australia Willow - The habit of winning Well written but slightly meandering profile. Score: 87 eloquentEEL - Very clever, worth a laugh or two, and obviously a fair bit of work has gone into it, but I didn't much like it. Sorry. (Good effort though). Score: 82...

    Round 9 (2006) Sharks v Panthers

    Panthers moonfire - The New Breed of Fan: Lazy Lard Balls Tongue in cheek. Good fun. Entertaining. Score: 86 Leaguenut - Memories Good way to pull the rug out from under the reader. It's the usual tale of overconfidence and believing the hype until the rather chilling sting in the tail...

    Panthers Factors behind the rise and fall phenomenon A few grammar errors distract from an otherwise workman-like article. Score: 84 Paul the Cowboy - 13 greats I've seen live A full team of greats.Nice descriptions but reads a little like a laundry list. Score: 82 LeagueNut - So...

    Round 8 (2006) Panthers v Knights

    That wicket's a bit sticky but, as long as the captains agree it's fair enough, I'm not going to interfere. Please don't do it again.

    Round 7 (2006) Rabbitohs v Panthers

    Souths paulquinn49 - C-A-R-N-E-Y Tongue-in-cheek profile of Todd Carney. Score: 86 pistol - Shouldering the burden Catchy opening made me wince leading into a well written piece on the burden of expectation placed on Benji Marshall's shoulders. Score: 88 vippo19 - Different eras - what's...

    Round 6 (2006) Knights v Raiders

    Raiders Dubby – Respect and Tradition Competently written but just a little dull. The personal recollections at the end are more interesting but it still falls short. Score: 82 Greeneyed - Raiders in league with union Not what you might think from the title but an essay on the...

    Round 5 (2006) Pirates v Eels

    Pirates Brycey The pain of losing. Gains your sympathy with the casual, friendly style but the verb tenses are all over the place. Score: 83 Prince Charles – What went wrong? If only… Gently humourous look at what went wrong along the way to League stardom. Score: 86 Half – Getting away...

    ANZAC TEST (2006) AUSTRALIA v NEW ZEALAND

    ANZAC TEST Australia Waken – Wouldn’t it be nice Wishful thinking at its best. Clever and funny and I like the running gag about the media’s unbiased coverage. Score: 84 EloquentEEL – Rival Revival Intelligently written article on how a great rivalry can enhance an intense game...

    Round 3 (2006) Rabbitohs vs Lions

    Souths Paulquinn49 – Power Plays An interesting suggestion on how to restore the impact of the ten minute sin bin. Nicely written and obviously a lot of thought has gone into the idea. Score: 85 Pistol – The Summit Awaits Brisbane’s climb up the table. Stirring stuff. Score: 82 Olympic...

    PVP Round 1 (2005) Warriors Vs Knights

    Warriors No7 fan – A man’s game This starts really well with a strong opening setting up the rest of the story. The description of the matches is exciting and really puts you there but spelling and grammar mistakes (tense changes in the middle of paragraphs) creep in here. Lots of potential...

    Grand Final (2005) Pirates Vs Raiders

    Extraordinary quality in this match, as you'd expect in a Grand Final with the top two teams playing each other, which is why the scores are fairly high. Even the lowest marking articles would have been good ones during the lead-up rounds so I hope no-one feels too disappointed. Well done...
