saints will start deserved favourites. we've won 4 in a row but look who we've beaten, all teams who wont be near the finals. even then three of the games were in the balance with 10 to go. im still nto convinced we've turned the corner.

i think it will be a great game but have a feeling saints will end up being too good by about 12-14.

I think you need to look at the stains opponents for the last coupla months Vic
Come back and tell me what you think.

Wests 26-16

 

[Rovelli]

Wisdom would suggest the Dragons win this. They have yet to be beaten at home this season with their full team, and have smashed all before them. The Tigers are a team that can definitely trouble the Dragons, and they are on a four-game winning streak...but three of those wins they have had to win ugly, and in the fourth their opponents (Warriors) gave up.

 

[gronkathon]

Alot of injuries for the Tigers it seems.

Bugger

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

Dragons 28-0.

wont beas one sided as the scoreline suggets. the tigers will have a good go, but the dragons will be on and well drilled and just gradually work away at the tigers.

 

[Eaglestar]

Easiest tip of the week if there is a such thing. Dragons by 12

 

[God-King Dean]

Is Fifita injured or just not playing?

 

[gronkathon]

Ankle injury is listed with a round 18 return

 

[God-King Dean]

Tah.

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Dragons have too much class and Tigers too many injuries.

Dragons will win this one comfortably but the Tigers will prevail when the sides meet again in September!

 

[petetheileet]

Dragons by 8

 

[Tiger Hawk]

If Farah joins Lui & McKinnon on the sidelines, Dragons by 30. Even that's probably being generous.

 

[Vic Mackey]

with lui confirmed out, mckinnon seemlingly no chance and farah not close to 100% ill tip dragons by 20

 

[Godz Illa]

Lui is a bit part player at best and McKinnon is an average ring-in. They'll still be formidable without them. Farah is the key though.

Any chance the Tigers call up George Kepa from Wests NSW Cup? Would like to see him get a shot, clever player

 

[gronkathon]

Keppa's form has been terrible of late and Meaney is light years in front of him right now

 

[abpanther]

Any late mail on whether Farah will play?

 

[petetheileet]

He's a tough bugger mate....

id put plenty on him playing the 80...

as long as the game is still in the balance with 10 to go

 

[bubblesunlimited]

Farah will play.

 

[Sans Souci Sainter]

A bit of wet weather will put the clamps on a bit.

Dragons by 24.




B Mozz FTS, then a hatrick for MOM.

 

[Anon]

According to the NRL site he has been passed fit to play.
