It's still early, I don't think most of us are in the groove yet, so to speak. However, it's relentless, the NRL season, it waits for nobody. So let's go!
Tonight, Sticky's Raiders host Ceraldo's Bulldogs. A lot to unpack here but the main point of interest is how Canberra come back from the Mt Smart drubbing last week. Another interest is the refereeing, Canberra like being grubby in the ruck but we know who the NRL want to win this year, and it's not the home team in green.
Friday, oh my! The finals have come early. Roosters v Panthers, Storm v Brisbane. Unpack that! What I can say is the latter game should show exactly where the Broncos are right now. If they don't click for a win then our worst thoughts might be true, Madge has lost the dressing room.
Saturday, three goodies. I'm in Newcastle! The Warriors are favourites, due mainly to Ponga and Brown being out. It'll be a slippery surface, pun intended. Cronulla have Redcliffe, hard to pick a winner, as the Dolphins have real speed in attack, plus decent forwards. Souths v Tigers is a Sydney special. For once it's Wests that look the better odds. But how will they go away from the emotion of Leichhardt?
Sunday, Sydney fare. Parra v Dragons. Like old school league, it's just that, unlike yesteryear, the Eels have forgotten what a premiership is. They were good last week though, but was that more about Brisbane being bad? We close with an under pressure Payten facing last-placed GC. Gee, a Cowboys loss could see a meeting of the NQ Board, nine AM Monday! Poor Todd. That's yuck in any man's books.
Enjoy!
