Bump. This game has not even been played yet and they post one for Round 9

 

[Dragons 09]

We should discuss it then and keep it on top of the thread list.....Dragons by 7

Do you blokes get as excited about this game as we do? It's the game i most look forward to all year.

 

[Valheru]

We do, not sure why though as we have a habit of being n the wrong end of the scoreboard regardless of form.

You guys have won 3 of the last 5 ANZAC games and we have won 5 of the last 5 non ANZAC games to illustrate my point.

Yeah, strange how things turn out. Just hope it's not your turn to start evening up the ledger just yet. Should be a cracker of a game though.

No. We play finals most years.

 

[Dragons 09]

No. We play finals most years.

lol, good call. You blokes were my tip to win the comp this year before the season started. I've seen nothing yet to suggest you still can't. Going well unfortunately

I thought we would be lucky to sneak into the finals. It is amazing that we are at the top of the table because we are still in second gear. Seems a weak comp and if we get our act together we can have a good shot at it.
