Big game for us.. We have a pretty decent record against the Cowboys in Sydney.

 

[BranVan3000]

Cowgirls big pack to have a field day

 

[BunniesMan]

Cowgirls can't travel. The break came at the perfect time for us. Merritt is back to replace our worst player (Corrigan). We're due for a win. We're gunna kill them. We got this.

Thats great and all but cows haven't lost an away game this year in fact they are 3/3 away and 1/4 at home.

Thats great and all but cows haven't lost an away game this year in fact they are 3/3 away and 1/4 at home.

Out of their away wins they only have one win worth boasting about (Broncos). And that was round 2. If you're going to play an elite team you'd want to play them the first fortnight.

Thurston's warming into the season. The Rabbits have no forwards. Cowboys by 20.

 

[BunniesMan]

Thurston's warming into the season. The Rabbits have no forwards. Cowboys by 20.

They are LWLW the last month. Their last 2 weeks include getting belted by a good team and belting a shit team. How is that "warming" into anything?

People have made the mistake of confusing his rep form with impending club form many times. He's not passing to Inglis and Slater and Cronk when he plays for the Cowboys.

 

[Silent Knight]

Cowboys have superior halves and forwards. They'll win by 30.

 

[BunniesMan]

They have a superior half when they play every team except Melbourne and Manly. They don't win all those games.

Their forward pack is tremendously overrated.

 

[blaza88z]

That shit team they belted.. kind of beat your team.. they belted this shit team in Darwin, did they not?

That puts to rest your "can't travel" theory, their forwards aren't over-rated.. what a stupid comment to make. I fail to see how you can be so blind to facts that you can be supremely confident about a Souths win by 20 and actually believe it will happen without a shadow of a doubt and this isn't just this game, it's every week. I would LOVE to see you in a tipping comp, you'd have to be near last.

That is why people don't like you, you're too unrealistic for anyone to believe you're a real person. If you think you're being realistic, well I advise you to get a wrench and smack yourself in the throat with it, because you're an idiot.

 

[BDR]

So let me get this straight:

Dunniesman: We will beat the Cowboys because they cannot travel!

Rational person: We haven't lost away from home all year

Dunniesman: Then we will beat the Cowboys because they haven't beaten anyone away from home worth beating except for the Broncos and that was a long time ago and because the Cowboys have patchy form even though they're above us on the ladder and because their forward pack is overrated!

34 correct tips so far. I'm coming 9/50 in the tipping comp I'm in.

FWIW, I didn't tip Souths to win against Melbourne or New Zealand.

So the only Souths games I've gotten wrong so far are Brisbane and Easts. We were a combined 20 odd minutes from winning both of those.

So let me get this straight:

Dunniesman: We will beat the Cowboys because they cannot travel!

Rational person: We haven't lost away from home all year

Dunniesman: Then we will beat the Cowboys because they haven't beaten anyone away from home worth beating except for the Broncos and that was a long time ago and because the Cowboys have patchy form even though they're above us on the ladder and because their forward pack is overrated!

Fairly accurate summary mate.

And you could hardly call the Easts game a true away game, even if they were a good team.

I wonder who is more at home in Darwin, a Townsville based team or a Sydney based team. Especially with the weather and temperature.

 

[Cowboys woo]

If Matt Scott returns, we should kill the Bunnies. Got a decent away record this year including a win over the Broncos (who else has beat them this year?) AND it was away from home... we're a different team this year, although we've started the year indifferently... but comps aren't won in March and April

 

[mr wiggles]

A close game, Souths by 1

 

[Rhino_NQ]

If scotty returns and pumps out a 150+m avg game we will have this one. Aside from our biggest ever victory awhile ago we never see to seem to be able to pile it on against 5(c)uff$ regardless of the form guides.

Tariq will be buzzing after the weekend. Will be fired up to nail an origin birth and between hima nd coops have a handy pair of fringe runners that are dangerous running off JT close to the line.

Standard 5(c)uff$ game, absolutely dominate but somehow only win by 4
