[Leber]

For us to have any hope at making the 8, these are the games we have to win. Beating teams with a similar record to us.

I'll go us by 7.

 

[Valheru]

Dogs are on a roll

If they have any hope of pushing for a top 4 spot then this needs to be a solid win.

 

[Someone2]

Warriors by 10

I'll go us by 7.

Plenty of extra incentive from the results already this weekend. Win and we leapfrog Souths and Brisbane and stay well in the hunt, lose and the 8 really starts to separate from the chasers.

 

[Leber]

No Tohu for us.

not that he has done much of late anyway.

 

[Exsilium]

Big game for both sides. I’m liking the Dogs in this one but if the warriors turn up, it will be the game of the round.

[Exsilium]

Reeds ears look like Jeff Strykers chocolate starfish following a night at ARQ

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

We'll smash these Warrior pretenders.. big score line coming up... 50-0 Bulldogs is my prediction.

 

[Exsilium]

We'll smash these Warrior pretenders.. big score line coming up... 50-0 Bulldogs is my prediction.

I’ll wait in the 50 thread

 

[Munky]

Did Mahoney just turn and chase a lead runner to get the obstruction?

 

[t-ba]

That one's a bit rough for mine.

 

[edabomb]

That's not a shoulder charge, it's just unco.

 

[mave]

I really wish the Warriors would stop tackling so hard.

 

[Vic Mackey]

How is that a penalty

 

[Leber]

Ahhh so we get that reffing today.

cool.

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

enforcing a drop out isn't as big these days with the rule change.

 

[Vic Mackey]

How come they can go back multiple tackles for that penalty? They always just put on report

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

RTS will get a crack at fullback here.
