I thought the NRL had f**ked up at first and showed Eels at 17th... Nope Eels are bottom of the f**king ladder!

 

[Saxon]

Which Knights will turn up? Which Eels?
I've picked Knights on the basis their worst is less bad.

 

[Woody90]

I’ll be very surprised if we can win this given our 1 and 6 have two FG games between them. Saying that though I’m so happy Cogger has been dropped I’m pretty ok regardless of the outcome.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Arthur’s back bby @hineyrulz

And to make matters worse, NSW has picked their halfback.

 

[Someone2]

Eels by 12

 

[Bazal]

If Moses plays the way he did Weds we will win by 836.

More likely is the baldness drags him back down, it's a bludger if a game like we always seen to have at Newcastle and we lose like 8-4 in a game that makes us all wish we had glaucoma.

Also Matt Arthur weighs 13kg and will die if an adult human runs at him

Ah. White jersey?

Knights by 40

 

[Wb1234]

[Bazal]

[Wb1234]

[Wb1234]

[Bazal]

Watching his son debut? Normal I'd have thought

 

[mave]

Dropped ball everywhere, and none of them from Saifiti.

Bizzaro world.

 

[Bazal]
