Wests Tigers advance to 4 competition points. Round 8 will be a cause for celebration!

At that stage Rabbits will have regressed to -2, the Warriors will be at -1 and Newcastle will lead on 14.

Our home coming - finally!

Really looking forward to seeing our "new look" stadium...

why is the Manly-Parra game at the SCG?

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

CUAS ... That will be a strange acronym to get accustomed to

 

[PARRA_FAN]

why is the Manly-Parra game at the SCG?

30 years since the 76 Grand Final, I'd assume they'll be wearing their old strips.

 

[BWNB]

not a friday night game...

 

[choc_soldier]

The Panthers v Sharks will be a commemorative match, which is why I believe it has been given Channel 9 status. Penrith will be wearing their black and brown strip.

To me, it'll still be Penrith Stadium.

Too much of a mouth full the "new" name. :lol:

 

[Bring Back the Spliff]

CUAS Stadium???

Well...At least they got the first 2 letters right!

It's ok - Take your time!.... ..... .......... ........ ... ...

What. The. F**k.

Get the hell off our ground.

Their subsidiary that operates exclusively within the Northern Territory withdrew its bid for the naming rights...obviously an issue of geographical relevance.

Boo.

The return of the chocolate soldiers ay.

 

[c_eagle]

What. The. F**k.

Get the hell off our ground.

I think you must have misread. It says SCG, not Telstra Stadium.

 

[nqboy]

Very ordinary round but it will be good to see the chocolate soldiers again. And good to see someone other than the usual suspects on FNF.

 

[Southernsaint]

Saints get stooged by the NRL.

A Tuesday afternoon match against Easts on ANZAC Day then a flight down to Melbourne for Saturday night...

 

[Beaches Boy]

why is the Manly-Parra game at the SCG?

60 year anniversary for both clubs + 30 years since the 76 GF so hopefully the same result for the Mighty Sea Eagles.

They're not wearing the original chocolate soldier jerseys, they're wearing the 40th aniversary one which looks totally different. I would have prefered it to look like the original.
