NRL 2018

A new NRL season begins this week with St George and Brisbane opening the season at Jubilee Oval on Thursday.
So far there has been no silly scandal although give Mitchell Pearce a couple of more days in Newcastle.
Warriors begin their season against South Sydney in the new Perth stadium. Already their season is in trouble with linchpin Simon Mannering out for (possibly) a month with a shoulder injury.
But without further ado, the Warriors team to face the bashful Bunnies in Perth:
1 ROGER TUIVASA-SHECK (c)
2 DAVID FUSITU’A
3 PETA HIKU
4 SOLOMONE KATA (what the fuck?)
5 KEN MAUMALO (what the fuck? part deux)
6 BLAKE GREEN
7 SHAUN JOHNSON
8 JAMES GAVET
9 ISSAC LUKE
10 ADAM BLAIR
11 ISAIAH PAPALI’I
12 TOHU HARRIS
13 LIGI SAO
Interchange
14 SAM COOK
15 LEIVAHA PULU

@sneakdefreak ah yes, excellent. The brilliant pairing of Kata and Maumalo gets to fail, yet again, in the first game.
-
@mariner4life It's going to be a long season. Did I mention I brought season tickets again? It's just a matter of faith....

Wee-a-we-we-warriors

NRL kicks off and the Dragons are not doing too bad against the Broncos. Leading 10-2 at halftime.
Also, the new NRL website is awful.
-
Look at all the penalties kicked. That's all this game is, kicking for goal. Run it!

Yep

I don't watch a lot of Friday night football as it mostly involves the Broncos.
But fuck what a game. That was huge. Old dog fondler came up fucking massive. Lock up ya pooches tonight Newcastle, Mitchells had a dream debut and he's keen to get in behind.
-
So far, everything is going as I predicted. Dragons win their first game, and will win most of their first ten before slowly running out of steam and finishing 9th.
Knights win their first but will struggle for large parts of the season (but won't finish last).
Cowboys win in Townsville, congratulations to JT on 300, and will win all the way to the Grand Final where JT will retire a champ.

@sneakdefreak That is spot on.

I turn it over. And within a minute i watch Maumalo jog into contact and get put in to touch. And then the team gives up a lazy offside penalty.
So consistent
