Alright Mayor has put the AFL one up and so I thought I would do the rugby league thread, so here go my pre-season comments. Brisbane. They will go okay, but they will miss the eight. I have them 11th Canberra. Have got the talent to make the eight, but have several weaknesses to overcome, the major one being fade outs late in their matches. I have them 7th. Canterbury. Sorry dogs fans but they are my wooden spoon favs. They need Foran playing all season, and some help for Jackson in the forward pack, which I can not see Napa supplying. 16th Gold Coast. They have built a good squad. They are one of the few teams that could have two or three injuries in the forwards and backs and still perform at their best. Addition of Kelly from Manly, Tyrone Peachey and Shannon Boyd give them a dangerous side, with experience. 6th. Manly. Have quality and any team with the Trbjovic brothers and Evans are a team that can go along way, but they need help. 14th. Melbourne. Every year we say they are ready to fall off the pace, and all the evidence I have suggests the same again, but while ever they have Bellamy as coach they are a top eight side. 5th. New Zealand. Not sure how they made the finals last season, but no chance this year. Losing Johnson is not that bad, but the younger guys need to step up and help Harris, Luke and Blake Green. 13th. Newcastle. Just like Gold Coast, they have a very good squad with depth. If Pierce and Ponga play the season, they are top four morals. 3rd North Queensland. Not sure here. Having Morgan take the reigns will be beneficial. Any team where you lose Thurston will dip in ability, but they can win matches with Morgan in charge. 12th. Cronulla. They have a team that can win enough matches to make the eight but that is as far as they will go 8th. Roosters. Will start a logical favorite, but have to overcome the curse of the back to back premierships. 1st. Souths Sydney. For me it all depends on how the players respond to the old man. If the Burgess boys can keep everyone happy, they will go well, but if some of the players start doubting Bennetts strategy, they are in trouble. 10th. StGeorge-Illawarra. My tip for the premiership. Just thought some of the players who achieved a bit last year, faded late in the season. With that experience under their belt, they can pace their effort this year. How the coach plays Corey Norman is vital, and the De Belin issue will make it harder if he is missing for the season, but they have a good forward pack, some good young outside backs and with Widdup leaving at the end of the season they will want to send him out on a high.2nd Parramatta. Can not see much improvement. Have lost Hayne and Norman, who were not putting the effort in, but it places all the creative and organisation on the shoulders of Moses, and while he has the ability to do the job, his actions have been inconsistent. 15th. Penrith. With all the coacing nonsense out of the way, and Gus just concentrating on his channel nine, gig, sorry I could not keep a straight face saying that, this team should be a top four hope, however they have a young team and even with Maloney there, who they seem to want to move on, things could go pear shaped. 4th. Wests. I like the look of this team, however they are one of the teams who can not afford any injuries. Packer and Matulino up fornt, with good ability outwide. Farrah, Marshall and Reynolds have the experience and Mbye and Masters give them finishing ability out wide. Could surprise. 9th. N.S.W to win the origin. Dragons to play the Roosters in the grand final. Dragons = premiers. Ponga to win the Dally M. ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

NRL season is fast approaching Rorters - Will be the team to beat again this year,but the pressure of going back to back is a tough ask, I'm sure Uncle Nick will pay someone off at headquarters to help the cause though. Storm - They will be there again, every year people doubt those Mexicans but every year they keep finding Broncos - I like the pack, best young forwards in the comp, if the forwards fire, look out in September. Cowboys - Like the Broncos , the Cows have a strong pack with McGuire joining in the off season, Morgan running the show will see them have a strong showing in September Knights - I like the addition of Klemmer to the team along with young Ramien, Ponga is the best player in the comp and once he and Pearce click, look out Souths - Will be thereabouts but has the spark finally gone with Bennett, time will tell Dragons - Good forwards and good backs, just keep your pants on Jack DeBelin and worry about footy, coach Mary at some stage will be under the pump, but he seems to get the best from his players when he is under pressure. Cronulla - All hangs on Fifitta who is a gun, Gal should have retired years ago when he won the comp but he is greedy peptide, Josh Dugan also needs to stay injure free. Raiders - Lost too many big forwards and will struggle, Ricky will blame the refs per usual. Parra - not much is expected but they have gained a few decent forwards which they lacked last year,might surprise a few but 6/7 need to step up. Tigers - Madge is a quality coach and needs to fix the attack, defence was good last year but attack was woeful. Titans - Not many give the Titans a hope but they have built nicely in the off season, will surprise a few teams Dogs - Coach pay is finally fixing all the crap left behind from Des, he is building the team nicely but don't expect any finals footy. Manly - Turbo, Jake and Tapau hold the key, also with Des returning to his happy place, he won't be screwing over Manly like he did with the Dogs. Penrith - Man of his word Ivan Cleary finally heads home, has a quality young half but the forwards need to fire Warriors - good luck ------------- EAD |

Voyager I have no idea how you have the Broncos pegged to finish 11th, they have a talented young forward pack, Matt Gillett coming back who barely played last season, strike weapons in the outside backs, they may not have the best halves but McCullough is one of the best 9s in the competition. They'll be on the top 8 again unfortunately. I agree with TIGER, the Rorters will go back to back. The NRL needs some revamping, the 3rd party agreements provide favourable conditions only for certain clubs, uneven distribution of talent, need to bring a common draft back in, bugger what Terry Hill did, if your fan of a club like the Tigers or Titans you know your club will eventually have any talented players hoovered up by clubs like the Rorters and Broncos, it's a joke. |

Did anyone mention we have yet another partner bashing, this time allegedly by Dylan Walker? His partner has possibly withdrawn her complaint, maybe lest their offspring have no means of support. or alternatively because she doesn't welcome another smack or two in the mouth or abdomen. Or both.

The women who call cops and make these complaints, and then back down, should be charged with time and money wasting. Taking up court time , and wasting police time . You make the complaint and get the cops and ambos to you, you either follow thru and show just what a jerk he is, and if you dont, you get charged. Put up or shut up. And cop it , if it means so much to you to be seen on the arm of some neanderthal. ------------- animals before people. |

In the court the neighbour said she asked the GF if she wanted to come in her house and Walker told her and her husband to mind their own f#@king business. If I as that girls. family, I would be forcefully taking her on a holiday and getting her as far away as possible from this guy! Just on the football and my OP, the teams from 6th to 12th are not separated by much, so injuries will play a part on who finishes where. ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

The latest idea from the NRL is to make the finals a 10 team tournament with teams 7 to 10 playing n a wild card play off to open the finals series. What a braindead idea. Why reward mediocrity? The winners of 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3 would reach a preliminary final having played once over the previous 3 weeks. Surely there is other ways to boost interest in the dead rubber end of season games, I think having a fortnight between the prelims and the grand final would be a much better idea than this. |

A better option would be 2 8 team conferences, play your own conference twice and the other once, half at home, half away with the alternate match ups the next year, finals top 2 from each conference with the next four made up of the best 4 records. No way they could go to a full home and away scehdule, that's 30 rounds plus finals, add in end of season representative games, extra weeks to allow byes, origin and the elite players would barely get a break before starting the next season. |

They need to consider a full revamp like the soccer did to convert from the NSL to the A League, to many in Sydney think they deserve a spot in the National competition because they had a spot in the Sydney suburban comp in rhe 1930s. Sydney should have only 4 or 5 teams, they nerd to focus on market area similar to how the NFL does, 23 people at the Olympic Stadium looks terrible on TV. |

This 100% correct Afros  There should be a truly national, rugby league competition with Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, North Queensland, NSW Country (based at Mudgee), Brisbane North and Brisbane South, Central Queensland, Sydney, Sydney South, Sydney North and Sydney West, Canberra and New Zealand. Play everyone twice for 24 matches. At all NRL matches you would get a game between local teams, you would get a reserves and the main match. However this will never happen while the NRL is full of politicians and people who can not see beyond their own selfish interests. The wildcard system is a stupid idea, and acknowledgement that the game will not get as much for their product, at the next television deal. ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

I'm thinking along similar lines Voyager, although I think Gold Coast is worth persevering with, they probably need a good spell of success to build a culture around the club. I also think the Brisbane area can handle 3 clubs provided they are all not playing at Suncorp Stadium, I'd keep the Broncos there, look at a team out in the west, maybe even at Ipswich and a third up north either the Redcliffe Dolphins or even at the Sunshine Coast with the aim of having an NRL team playing within an hour of majority of the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Brisbane population. The Northern side would also provide a closer option for the Bundaberg and Fraser Coast region and the Western side the same for the Toowoomba and Darling Downs areas. |

Currently compiling the stats on this play and it’s fair to say it’s going to be goooood! Up to the end of rd12 last year (96 matches) a team has led by 6 or more at HT and gone on to lose on 12 occasions. Lead by 4+ and lose was 14 occasions. |
Posted By: ExceedAndExcel
Date Posted: 07 Mar 2019 at 4:42pm
Full season stats for 2018: 201 games Lead by 4+ @HT & lose = 32 times (15.9% of games) Lead by 6+ @HT & lose = 24 times (11.9% of games) While both PointsBet & SportsBet are running these promos suggest backing one team with one book and the other with another book to return the same amount. You’ll be risking around $10 per game. When it hits you will make anywhere from around 18-1 to 25-1 on your money. You’re welcome.

You are right Afros! I seem to remember something about the UEFA organisation wanting to play a European vs South America match where players playing in Europe but having been born in SA would represent that team being talked about in the 1990's. The stumbling block was the clubs who were willing to let their players play, but wanted too much compensation, that the game was not viable financially. ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

No good last night. Looked a possibility briefly in the 2nd half but not to be. Will play both matches tonight as well. Haven’t got in yet but same sort of numbers. |

Well done boys you were the better team imo, now the roosters too showy for the bunnies but hope they play well for the old guru, evens GI makes it past half time , doubt it, big watch on Latrell M. he's a star. |

Not long to wait for the first video ref blunder of the season. I am 100%, hands down guaranteeing you, that there is now ay the Sharks try was a penalty try. Katoa was running straight and the ball skidded on and took a huge right turn into the path of Dugan. ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

In the second half Cordner went over but was short, Burgess rakes the ball out, the ball goes forward, and yet Souths get the tap restart from the 20. Am I missing something? The Roosters should have had a scrum feed ten metres out! ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

| I'm flicking between the game and movie on sbs, but I thought it was deemed a knock on by cordener . |

You are correct Carioca, but what I am saying is Burgess raked it out and a roosters player picked it up so is that a knock on, as it is in general play? ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

The other thing, to Heavy, is I thought all professional fouls were sin bin offences. What was Lee doing on the field to take the intercept? ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

I think you need to watch the replay again mate. Cordner lost control of the ball before the try line. Not to mention the pass from Keary to Cordner was forward as well. No try was the correct ruling

Who does Easts have to fill the role of Big Papi? I know they've got Morris for Ferguson and that is a definite downgrade. ------------- An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought. Simon Cameron |
