AND, the Donkeys officially are in last place.

so come on Eels and Cowboys next week you have a job to do.

If Parra get the job done this week, the Cows will play the last round like a G/F. They’d love nothing more to hand the spoon to the Donkeys.

Mickqld,

I truly understand your position; my nephew(about 6 at the time) assumed I was a qld supporter as I was living there at the time; I quickly straightened him out about where my loyalties lay.

Yeah, same thing when we moved up here in ‘91. The blokes I was working with just assumed I’d follow qld now. The look on their faces when I fronted to work in my Blues jersey on Origin night (which is covered in signatures going back to ‘83) was pure gold.

Yep plus a send off for a professional foul.

God Crichton is some player

Has to be in that Blues 27

Behind Turbo and Wighton in the centres but should be next cab off the rank

Charlie Staines his jersey?

'Women in League' - best Cowboys jersey I've ever seen - should make it their home strip. IMO, their default jersey is the most boring/drab in the NRL.

was Drinkwater a Manly junior?

His brother Josh was.

Good to see Holmes starting to run the ball.

Bulldogs have struggled to hold on to a lead all year. I’m hoping they hold on to win this one

But Foran was playing? Surely you jest.

Can someone please explain to me why a shoulder charge is illegal and high shots are binned and penalised from a defender yet Sivo is allowed to launch into a tackle with his shoulder everytime he runs the ball ?

Why do I get the feeling that the Worms are going to find a way to stuff this up tonight?

Was just thinking exactly that

 

[Rackets]

It's safe to say the worms are deadset pretenders.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

The Eels are playing badly tonight. Still very much looking like a team out of form

I've been told using the shoulder while in possession of the ball is okay.

Doesn't seem right to me but seems to be allowed?
