Friday
DRAGONS- similar match to the eels clash, not much in it but dragons structures and defence will get them the win
RABBITOHS- not impressd by titans yet

Saturday
WARRIORS- warriors at home, sharks look ordinary in attack still
PANTHERS- attack looks awesome, lot of points in the this match me thinks.
STORM- given up tipping against this lot

Sunday
ROOSTERS- toughest pick this week i think, roosters but not by much
EELS- no Stewart no win for the gits, eels bounce back with point to prove

Monday
RAIDERS- just because

Dragons
Rabbitohs
Warriors
Storm
Cowboys
Sea-Eagles
Tigers
Broncos

Brett Stewart is out for 5 months. Same injury as last season but this time it's the other knee, expected back near round 20.
That's a disaster for Manly, i dont think they'll make the top 8 now with him out, he's that important to them IMO. I thought they'd just sneak in the 8 but not now. David Williams is out for a couple of months aswell although that could be a good thing for them with the form he was in last year.
Robertson will be FB. Chris Bailey is playing centre this week, I'd move Foran out to centre and bring the young guy Hodkinson in at halfback.

souths - titans - both poor last round. give the bunnies another chance at home. souths

dragons / dogs - saints with ennis out but dogs motivated for the result at kogarah last year

warriors / sharks - warriors at home after unlucky not to win at titans

knights / storm - storm in a gritty encounter with newcastle a good chance for the upset

cowboys / penrith - cowboys, penrith poor away record

eels / manly - eels by plenty with manly without stewart and having to back up from MNF

roosters / tigers - game of the round, roosters, wests tired after monday night, hope tigers win though

canberra / broncos - raiders at home

You lot are brave tipping the Raiders. Did you not watch our game last week? Us being strong at home is becoming a myth. It's still the only place we can win, but even then it's becoming more and more sp.

That said, we've got plenty of players out now and that's usually when we play our best for some reason.

Dragons
Rabbitohs
Warriors
Storm
Cowboys
Eels
Roosters
Broncos

Campbell out zillman in for the titans.

FFS!

Another 16 point lead we've given away. Again the 1st 20s been a sh*thouse followed by a decent second part to the half. We just seem to have no idea how to get over the line and if the "kick to Idris" tactic doesnt work were stuffed.

Cant see a comeback anyway. Saints will score again and we cant kick goals

Oh, but the Morris' "fight" at the end when the others were getting heated was quality

Were back into it a bit. Still some stupid high shots going in. If we can get the next its game on.

If that was downward pressure I'm a woman. The ball was still moving!

Burgess looks to be going ok in tge other game. Some good runs and hits from when iv been glancing over

Ah well, wooden spoon on the way

We didnt have a clue how to break them down and they destroyed us up the middle.

Burgess with 6 drives, 51 metres and 11 tackles in the 1st half. Not bad stats. Didnt see too much of it because i was too focused on the Doggieflogging but Im hoping this is a better game :lol.:
