[ByRd]

3 channel 9 games for us to start the year. cant wait till round 1 against the saints & then to get revenge against the cowboys.

 

[les norton]

well that sucks...

 

[Billybob]

1 Game in ten years to 6 out of the last 8
quick everyone on the cowboys bandwagon


finally good to see channel nine knows who and where we are
now if only they can get a roster that everyones happy with and show all teams instead of the elite teams because sooner or later the cowboys will become just the cowboys again in their eyes and that will be it for another ten years

What? I don't understand.

Doesn't it make sense to keep the NRL's most boring and pathetic team on the side lines for the first round so it doesn't detract from all the excitement?

what dont you understand, im a raiders fan, you may find them boring etc but to me they are exciting and i want to see my team run out ASAP? Are you stupid or just high to not understand that?

 

[DIEHARD]

But don't you wonder why they got the BYE first? :lol:

 

[tiger_nick]

Round 2: Mar 18-20

fair point on the off season :lol:
they couldnt give it to melbourne again so that leaves 14 teams left, would appear our number was up, next season it will be someone else

 

[Bomber]

If Canberra wins games they'll get on tele

Eventually

It took the Cowboys ten years
