2005 NRL ladder predictions

[Chippo Raiders]

You really are a delight to be around aren't you? Could I have thought that because you had my quote last in your response? Get it together champ, maybe you need to hit up your old mate Boogs for some goods to keep you on your game...

Yeah i was talking to you I said TO YOU " I applaud him (him meaning the guy YOU were speaking to) for having the right perspective) If I were referring to you I would have said " I applaud YOU" I didn't so meh

 

[Raiders Plight]

Ok i'll do this again:

FULLBACK - Schifcofske v Hodgson - Maintain above - DRAW

Winger: Chalk Graham v Richards and Reick - I'll take Richards over marshall Chalk at present. I'll take Graham over Matty Reick any day of the week. Overall - RAIDERS

Centre: Mogg, Frawley v Elford and Whatuira - I'll take Waitura over Mogg, and i'd take Frawley over Elford - all in all i'd be more inclined to go for the Tigers as a package deal.

Half: Carney v Prince - Carney. Rising young star who I've had the pleasure to see play a lot. Brilliant player. My comments for Prince are same as above.

5/8th: J. Smith v Marshall - Same as before.

Lock: Croker v Galea (c) - This is a bit Closer than before. But i'd still take Galea. A little bit quicker and sharper than an aging Croker.

2nd Row: Adamson, Hindmarsh v O'Neill, Laffranchi - I'd be more inclined to go for the raiders, but I think the Tigers here as Adamson is an unknown quantity was warming the bench for Leeds at the end of this season.

Hooker: Woolford v Farah - Same as Above

Prop: O'Hara, Weymen v Skandalis and Gibbs -Same as above.

My team:
1. Hodgson
2. Richards
3. Frawley
4. Whaitura
5. Graham
6. Smith
7. Carney
8. O'Hara
9. Farah
10. Skandalis
11. Laffranchi
12. Hindmarsh
13. Galea

14. Withers
15. Weyman
16. Adamson
17. Gibbs

Thats a fair assessment, they're all pretty evenly matched.

 

[Eddie.]

Fullback: Schifcofske v Hodgson (shifty is good and i like him, but hodgo wins)
Winger: Chalk, Robertson v Richards (will get NSW) and Reick (Tigers just ahead)
Centre: Mogg, Gafa v Elford and Whatuira (Tigers by a mile)
Half: Withers v Prince (Tigers droped Withers for Prince... enough said, oh i forgot QLD x 3!!!!)
5/8th: J. Smith v Marshall (take a guess)

ok, i'll take a punt - the ex-Australian representative?! Whatuira and Elford - you're kidding aren't you?! try Graham and Mogg 8)

Lock: T.Smith v Galea (c) (Galea by a mile, he will get NSW this year)
2nd Row: Hodgeson, Hindmarsh v O'Neill and Laffranchi (Good GOD!)
Hooker: Woolford v Farah (woolf has exp, but farah will be a star)
Prop: O'Hara, Weymen v Skandalis and Gibbs (Gibbs will be the NSW Webcke and Skando wins by a mile)

Gibbs is a crap player, i don't understand all the hype about him (and i watched him closely, 'cos he was in my Virtual NRL team).

Kris man you are abserloutly right about gibbs. im a tigers fan and i have no idea what all the hype is about. he gives away dumb penalties all the time, drops the ball often and makes no impact with the ball in hand, often about 4 meters a hit up.

i wouldnt have in the first grade side, Halatau, harrison, Lima, Fulton whoever are all much better then Gibbs.

Now THAT was a funny post.

Get your head out of the sand. There are players at your club I wouldn't mind and I'm sure the reverse exists.

How do all those guys you mentioned get Blues jerseys this year??? Is there a hideous plane crash somewhere???

No I told you to keep it together champ! Something your struggling to do... Mate I have no need to defend my side the headlines speak for themselves... You guys are a club on the slide (with rats diving overboard daily) where as we are a club on the rise, we may not be premiership threats yet but I'd sure as hell prefer our future to yours....
And if you think your "ahead" that's just fine with me, what ever it takes to float your boat... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Problem with the Tigers is that their attack really relies upon Hodgson- apart from him, their backline is pretty dead IMO. (and don't reply saying "Raiders is also shit!", cos i'm not denying that. i'm just making an assessment of the Tigers in comparison to other NRL teams)
