Looks like nearly all the teams are treating this as a joke this year. Most squads look lucky to meet the minimum requirements.

cannot wait to see French put in the clear off a Nelson pass.

Scheduled for thunderstorms and rain in Auckland this weekend which usually means it'll be sunny, overcast, showery and then a downpour before being sunny again.

Just sad how some coaches treat the game and some of its concepts with such contempt.

A nines event where all teams named their strongest lineups would be truly extraordinary.

It would be extraordinary if each NRL club had a moron for a CEO as well as a coach. That is the only way this debacle would become relevant.

I think it's the combination between Hipgrave and Opacic that the crowds will want to see. :roll:

 

[Vic Mackey]

Seems the Cowboys are taking souths lead from last year and sending a strong team, good to see the defending premiers taking it seriously

 

[Rhino_NQ]

wow, wasn't expecting that

 

[Timmah]

All squads in now... including Anasta for Roosters :lol:

 

[TheDalek079]

We've picked future immortal Latrell Mitchell. We're taking this seriously!

 

[tumbidragon]

Dragons have made a cpl changes. Tyrone McCarthy in for Mose (side strain) & U'20's player Reuben Garrick in for the better Mata'utai (playing trial the same night @Redlands).
Was looking forward to big Mose running over and getting ran around

Cowboys will win.

 

[tumbidragon]

I have it as,

WAIHEKE- Eels, Rabbits to qualify
RANGITOTO- Cowboys,Penrith to qualify
HUNUA- Warriors, Manly to qualify
PIHA- Sharks, Titans to qualify

With either Warriors or Cowboys taking it out.

I think Warriors or Cowboys will win too.

Sharks could be dangerous.

 

[Parra! *Clap Clap Clap*]

Parra should get through the group stage. Semi Radradra to rip up the 9s again this year.

You have obviously never seen french and Nelson play.
