South’s had so much ball in the first half and their attack was so bad they only scored off a terrible defensive error and a dropped ball.
The roosters were terrible and South’s weren’t much better.

Murray is also a beast.

Not God level like Yeo, but second best backrower in the comp.
He is a really brilliant player. I think that he and Yeo are the best backrowers in the world right now. I have Yeo shading it because I think he has a better passing game. That said, Murray has a better running game (he is really an explosive player, breaking tackles and bending the line). Not more than a Rizla between them.

They both have amazing engines, great defence and are tougher than a Landcruiser with Roo bars. You can belt them. You can smash them. You can drive them into the turf like tent pegs. But frankly, they couldn't give a f*ck and will run the ball straight back into the teeth of your toughest, meanest forwards laughing at them as they break the line. Again.

They laugh at you as your best players cry for their Mums, coughing their lungs up as they try to keep up, while they rack up 100+ metres, 30 + tackles and a try assist. Every game. After the game has finished, they put a backpack on and run home, stopping at Fitness First to do a quick workout before heading home to do the washing up and put the kids to bed. Probably...

QLD will be looking at these two and going "heeeeeeeelp". I really hope they get to play for Australia together. Throw in Arrow and Crichton and you have a back row so full of energy and power, you can tell the Russians we don't need their gas anymore.......

I’m surprised how soft the Roosters are.

Must be a hangover from all the adversity, because it is not the Roosters way…

I think Sam walker and luke keary are both great halves but carrying both of them in a defensive line would worry me, they’d have to be two of the weakest defenders in the comp. Walker in particular is still working out the physical aspect and his reading of the attack coming at him. The bunnies exploited both his small size and his tendency to dart off the line last night, I hope our coaches took note cause it was effective.

Roosters didn’t play well last night, it was two great plays from Manu and one from mom that got their tries, besides that individual brilliance their attack was poor, they were throwing the ball side to side and coming up with risky passes from the start.

Yeos running game is underrated, he has broken more tackles and come up with more total pct metres in 2 games than Murray has in 3 games. Yeo also sitting on 100 percent tackle effectiveness and has the same total offloads as Murray does. Murray is awesome but Yeo is flat out better imo.

We don't support Yeo's running game between the 20 metre lines enough.

So many half breaks with arms free and no one backing up.

I enjoyed watching both last nights games.

WT bombed a great opportunity with the Warriors having a man in the bin late on but proceeded to self implode and didn’t compete a set with the one man advantage.

I thought the Bunnies were very good, there forwards in particular really dominated the Roosters pack. It was a good win for them.

I'd be leading my tipping comp but somehow didn't put in my tips for round 2. The good olde mis-click.

A lot of good match ups in this round:

Dragons
Tigers (The definition of a coin flip)
Roosters
Panthers
Eels
Titans
Broncos
Sea Eagles

Fangs with his first tip of the round. 1 from 4. Hopeless.

Eels better come through.
