NRL 2017

@Paekakboyz look, that's all well and good. Yes, theoretically (and historically for the kiwis) Foran and SJ have been a good combo, each playing a different role.
But we've lacked players will to dig in when it gets tough. We leak points at an alarming rate. Our error counts are always way up. And i look at our roster, and i am not convinced the players are there who can, or are willing to, fix those things. The best defenses and the lowest error counts do well in the NRL. This season will be no different.

That's my deluded angle bro! I'm hoping this squad actually has that mongrel and resilience in them, and Kearny can tap into it. For at least enough of the team to drag the others along or make it real easy to tag who to cut asap. I want him to be ruthless aye - no place in the NRL if you aren't going to give a hundy.
I'm also hopeful that a Doyle and Kearny combo will be good for the club. Mooks has mana and while I can't stand listening him to talk (leagues John Mitchell!! journey time boys!) he seems to know his shit.

Ok, only a week to go and we still haven't had any NRL players try and shag a dog, piss in front of small children or take a dump in a hotel. A lot of pressure will be going on the Sydney based players to come through with the goods....

If we can't beat Newcastle, then we should chuck the whole season in early doors
-
I see Kieran Foran is already trying to leave the sinking ship ... lining up the Broncos for 2018
-
Sharks v Broncos to open the season. Disappointing both of them can't lose.
And as I'm typing Chad Townsend does more in one movement than he ever did for the Warriors
-
Sharks kick-start their title defence with a loss. Broncos win 26-18.
For those of you playing NRL Fantasy, the top scorer was Andrew Fifita with 56 points.

The NZHerald is reporting that the Tigers' Tim Simona is to be given a life ban: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11809699
As a Tigers supporter; good.

Are the Bulldogs able to play a game at 5.30 on a Friday night because none of their supporters have jobs?

Handy player but betting on games is a big no-no in all sports.
Side-note: the police investigation into Manly appears to have gone no-where.

Wests are playing their best game of the season in the first game of the season - just like last year. Spanking the Bunnies 34-8 in wet weather and are saying "Who the fuck is Farah?" while doing it.
In the first game, the Storm won a predictable slogfest against the Bulldogs 12-6. Jesse Bromwich fucked up his hand and will be out a few weeks.
-
Eat a dick Farah you fuckhead
-
Souths become the first team out of the running for the playoffs. Their best player Greg Inglis looks set to miss six months with an ACL.
-
What the fuck? The spoon contender Dragons just smoked the supposedly GF bound Panthers
