I'm not entirely surprised by who's won and who's lost so far, but I expected the margins in both Wakey/Brad and Salford/Leigh to be a lot less. Halifax have been a positive surprise, Sheffield have been on the end of expected scorelines. If you're going to be honest, the series was only realistically about who gets 5th between Leigh and Bradford with perhaps Wakefield being the likeliest 4th placed team.
The acid test for the whole comp is definitely Leigh v Wakefield.
Just watched one of those high intense games OZWelsh was talking about this morning. Warriors v Cowboys. Was a cracker with the result in the balance until the last minute.

Don't try and discredit me.
You know, as do most that across the board the RL is more intense than SL. Many in Aus. say that SL is the equivalent of the QLD Cup, they're not far wrong seeing that T McCarthy was playing Q Cup last year.
Obv. not all NRL matches are going to be v intense, esp. when N QLD knew that they could beat this Warriors side playing in second gear; no Johnson, Townsend, Leuluai.
