This bloke spat the ultimate dummy after Manly beat Penrith on the hooter at Brookie and i feel he has struggled to accept it up to this day!!

He went on to try bag Manly and tip against them and maybe some was his opinion, but let me add, plenty was a personal agenda....Manly have now forced his hand and he is riding the Manly train hard - personally want him thrown overboard as we go better when all are backing against us!!

Results from Round 20 basically confirmed what we said in last week's Power Rankings - that it's down to five teams. However, I was impressed with one side outside the top five that I think can make a run.

1. Manly Warringah Sea Eagles (Last week: 1)
At half-time against the Knights, I had them down a spot from last week, but they changed that in the second half with a very clinical display. It was a banana peel game because the Knights needed to win, but Manly were professional enough to be able to get through it and they continue to be a premiership threat.

2. Melbourne Storm (2)
Very close to being back at No.1 but Manly did enough to stay on top. For the Storm to go up to Brisbane and put the Broncos to the sword the way they did was very impressive. It was a classic, ruthless, Melbourne performance and I still feel the loss they had to Manly will do them more good than harm.

3. Canberra Raiders (3)
A potentially tough trip to New Zealand and I expected them to get the job done but not as emphatically as they did. They certainly went over there with a very professional effort and mindset and it showed in their performance. They held their defensive structures and their attack flowed. The Raiders are trending nicely.

Match Highlights: Warriors v Raiders

4. Sydney Roosters (5)
Back into form with a thrashing of the Titans but the true challenge for the Roosters lies ahead, and they know that. They know they started the season as champs and everyone's been up for them all year, and they look forward to this time of year with the big games coming up.

5. Parramatta Eels (6)
Went into a tough environment at Kogarah and it was good to see them prepared to grind it out and build a win around defence, especially being away from Bankwest. Great effort to hold the Dragons to four points. Mitch Moses deserved the big contract that he got and Parra fans can be happy about the prospect of playing finals footy.
 
These articles really should come with a warning "Warning: the following article contains the opinions of Jamie Soward" much like Kent, Hooper and Weidler articles.
 
Soward is deadset inlove with us at the moment...pretty much every week he has had his power rankings ahead of what we actually are on the ladder lol!
 
Honestly I like the way he writes and think he has grown up somewhat with regards to impartiality.
I prefer to read his power rankings that a lot of the dribble out there so he is doing something right.
Most of all I respect the fact that he recognises just how bloody entertaining this team is.

Who cares what these former footballers think? They are the worst tippers in the world.
What makes anyone believe these broken down dullards know better than fans?
No wonder so many of them are donating their brains . . . they are not being used much at the moment.
Could not have said it better. The so called experts in the game know f#%^ all!
