Telstra Premiership Round 1 - Teams / Refs / Results

[gorilla with a shotgun]

If the Raiders were a Sydney based team they wouldnt be wooden spoon favs.

 

[Mr. Fahrenheit]

Oooh, you're sharp :sarcasm:

and another one ticks over :sarcasm:, but serioulsy nqboy, if youre worried about the rapid rise of post counts... just take a trip to the FFB

 

[aids]

so far, any dramaitc suprises?
for the tigers, Bronson Harrison on the bench is a big one.
and Ohara being sent back to PL, although i havn't seen Ohara do much to be upset about it.

 

[Ice777]

Not as scary as I thought, definately beatable

Who else did you think was going to be in there that would make our team scarier?

It's the medias fault.......

They arent as scarey looking on paper as they used to be IMO.

No Webster,Turner,Kidwel,Hill.....

And Jermey Smith in the backrow....wtf???

Still a very good side....

i wonder how many chances smoking joe williams and former SOO rep heggarty will be given this year.

i'm really suprised how far Heggarty's form has slipped the past few years.

That's a solid 1-17. I'd like Manase to be picked over Rigon for size. Hegarty in the centres always botheres me... he will cost at least one try through arm-grabbing (get on Soliola first try scorer). Also no Joe Galuvao. Interesting. F*ck me though if that's not the best forward pack and bench we've had for 15 years!!

 

[nqboy]

Ghoulies, that was the case last year, but Big League still referred to them as the New Zealand Warriors. Being the official publication of the NRL, I'd like to think they've got it right.

Yeah, you'd like to think that but time has shown you'd be wrong. Every year there's stacks of threads with the typos and misprints in BL.

 

[Jono Russell]

That's pissweak.

still alot stronger then anything Canberra have this year.

 

[Disco]

Is Shannon Mcdonnell injured????

if so, when is he due back

 

[aids]

mcdonell is not injured, he is clumsy.
i would imagine he get a run if hodgo gets hurt, or behind jeffery and lawerence for wing spots

 

[smeghead]

Souths real issues this year will lay in the halves.

 

[VictorTheViking]

It's the medias fault.......

If you cut your hair so it wasn't covering your ears and eyes when media reports come out, you'd realise that it was.

Thank you captain obvious.

 

[simon says]

I cant believe how many new kids there are this year.....

I knew with the Tits and SOuths getting many that this year would really test teams juniors more than ever.

But wow,there are blokes I have heard of in nearly every side and some real bolters.

 

[smeghead]

Quite ok.

I am here all season. Try the veal
