Worst game of the season?

Cowboys by 22.

 

[Timmah]

I'll take the Cowboys now but I reserve the right to change my tip later in the week.

I think we've got Sullivan, Hughes and others back.

I'd check further but our website's down :lol: Can things get any worse?

 

[Geohood]

Cowboys will win this they're performing better than the Dogs.

 

[Shorty]

Cowboys will win this they're performing better than the Dogs.

And yet they've found a way to at least win a few more games...

I'd like to have a win and this seems the most likely game but I refuse to believe we will ever win a game again this season with Millward muppet.

So most probably halftime Cows 30 Dogs 0,fulltime Cows - 36 Dogs - 40.

 

[Timmah]

What Shorty said... we've managed to have a couple of "flashes in the pan"... NQ have lost 10 or 11 straight and just can't compete for eighty. Here's hoping *crosses fingers*

 

[Twigg]

Who knows, could even be a 40 all draw lol.

 

[Ziggy the God]

I am going for Golden Point.

 

[African Monkey]

Although the Cowboys have been losing they have still been competing in most of those matches so I think they'll win.

 

[The Gambler]

Both teams agree to save whatever reputation remains and forfeit the match - sharing the points.

 

[pantherz9103]

Come on Cowboys have to end their streak here, surely

 

[aqua_duck]

Ben Barba at fullback means every cowboys linebreak will be a try

 

[dogz08]

come on dogs!!

 

[Timmah]

Ben Barba at fullback means every cowboys linebreak will be a try

That would involve them actually breaking the line, tbh.

NRL Preview and Tips - Round 22
BY Paul Zines

This week we have a top of the table clash as well as the much anticipated battle at the bottom. Even though it was a small crowd I must congratulate those Bulldog supporters who made it to the game last week. The Dogs didn’t even look like they wanted to be there which is a shame for the supporters who are also going through a tough time.

Corey Hughes, Matt Utai and Jarrad Hickey all return for the home-side and the very talented Ben Barba moves to fullback. At half-time, the Cowboys looked like they might cause the biggest upset of the year. However 22 unanswered points helped the Roosters beat the cellar-dwellers. The team is still missing Johnathan Thurston but look like they are starting to build for that elusive win.

The Bulldogs have decided to move the match to Suncorp Stadium. This should be an advantage for the so called “away-side”. Having won only three from their last sixteen against the Cowboys, plenty of off-field problems, a lack of attitude and playing in Brisbane, I’ll have to take North Queensland to finally break their 13-match losing streak.
