Congrats on the win Cowboys.

Just for the record are there any referees you wouldn’t say this about?

Cows by 6

If theres going to be an upset in Round 1, which youd assume their will be, Id think its this. The Cows 1-13 looks pretty smooth like last year and Payten will have them out of the blocks doing what they did in 2022. That bench though is horrendous.

The Raiders are just one of those teams you can never get a read on. No Papalli, Kris at fullback, got belted by last years wooden spooners whilst at full strength 10 days ago, tough away trip. Everything points to to them going down, but they're just as likley to win by 18.

NQ by 4 but nothing would surprise.

Never underestimate the whackyness

 

[GongPanther]

Second best defensive team last year should run riot against a Canberra side who has a named side I hardly recognize.

Cows by 34-12. And you never know, with the talk that teams are usually not running on all pistons until round 4, that scenario could may well favour the Raiders if they play kamikaze style football.

What a ridiculous question.

 

[mozza91]

What a ridiculous question.

So, that’s a no?

I thought Kris had a good season last year, really made the centre position his own but I don't see him as a fullback....

Showers so far most of this morning in Townsville. Muggy but could have been alot worse had the sun been out. Forecast is for showers this afternoon as well so will see what happens.

 

[gerg]

We looked very underdone in the trials .. so off we go to 35 degrees and a thousand % humidity. We got diss!

 

[Diesel]

Cows for the win, Ricky for a post match presser meltdown
