Harrowing hidings, rousing wins, thank God the extremes of Anzac Round are over for another year.
Now we're into the pre-Origin phase, it all about NRL footy. Tonight, the Broncos host the Sharks, we know Brisbane are one of those clubs that need to string a few wins together.
Friday, Titans fans won't have much home joy against Penrith. Souths and Manly is crucial, mid-table fare. Both those sides, with proven coaches, would expect better than their current position. Last year, Manly would say 'well, we don't have Tom, so we're doing well, considering' but this year they've shown they can win without the big lanky bugger at the back.
Saturday, can the shell-shocked Warriors bounce back against Sticky's landless Vikings? It could mean their season if they do. But Canberra are in trouble too. A loss here and it's 'new coach-talk' all over again. The Bulldogs might beat the Roosters, it's an OK bet that one. The Chooks aren't playing well. The Top-End hosts the Eels and Cowboys. It's great taking the NRL to Darwin.
Sunday, can the poor Knights hold Melbourne to a respectable score at home? We close out with the match of the round, Dragons v Tigers. After last weekend, with both sides having rousing wins, it's got people talking. One has to lose though, which will prick any balloons that have popped up.
Enjoy.
