I feel like I'm doing the hype for the NRL...but this is a magnificent round of rugby league!
Tonight, the GF rematch, Panthers v Parramatta. The Eels beat them twice last season but were never in the big one. Will the same thing happen here? Parra sure are desperate enough to pull off an upset.
Friday is juicy too. Can the last dash Tigers upset a below-par Storm? Or will they just play them into form? Then the game of the round, Dolphins against Broncos, both sides undefeated. The NRL couldn't have dreamed up a better script.
Saturday, It's all Queensland again. The Cowboys are hurting, the Titans are feeling quite good about things. Expect a cracker. Then the Rabbitohs will look to have something to prove against the unbeaten Sea Eagles. Playing away from home always has Manly looking less likely, but we'll see.
Sunday sees the Warriors back in Auckland where they belong. The Dogs seem competitive again and there's some big egos in their side who just might not step up if the the home side's drums get going, with points piling on.
The Knights miss Ponga, he's their star, and they'll face the Raiders without him again due to concussion issues.
We close with the struggling Dragons against the Sharks, who are also down on results. This local derby is tense at the best of times!
Enjoy the hype! (and the actual games).
