[Poupou Escobar]

Who played hooker for Wenty???

The NRL squad's backup hooker, Liam Foran.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but I thought that was a really good crowd last night.
Wooden spooners two years in a row, Sunday (school) night. Long distance away team. Great effort from fans I reckon. Can't wait till we get on a roll and start filling the joint again.

I was really impressed.

And the Warriors fans were in good spirit, too. We sat near one drunk, racist bogan Eels fan who nearly got a massive Kiwi to knock his lights out.

But after the game, we apologised on behalf of that twit and he was a good bloke.

[Twizzle]

and I'm pretty sure they are all wrong

What I found funny was I sat with a lot of Warriors supporters.
They booed our players when names being read but not when it was guys like MoiMoi or Tanginoa or terepo.

Most the game they just yelled feed the beast.

I'm paraphrasing what the bloke said, but he yelled at a little girl wearing a Warriors jersey something like, "Go back to New Zealand, you useless n****r!"

I felt like knocking him out myself.

We only have six blokes who aren't Islanders. Although Hayne and Edwards have whitey names.

Lol.
How he can have the Bulldogs so high on that list is laughable.
They were rubbish on the weekend. Eels and Dragons were way better. And it doesn't look like they will even prove at all.

and i like how he has the roosters and sea eagles ahead of the cowboys despite the fact they won convincingly and the others lost

p.s. how did the knights make it to 8 ahead of half the comp despite coming dead last on the ladder?
these rankings are a deadset fkn joke

The rankings are obviously based on the (perceived) relative strengths of the rosters, rather than results of the single game played so far.

there's no point having the greatest team in the league on paper if you can't get your shit together on game day

So what do you think is a better indicator of the Roosters' chances this year; last year's minor premiership plus grand final win, or their round one flogging against a fellow top four side?
