<p>I didn't hear his name in commentary until about the 20 minute mark.</p>

<p>Agree Kata was terrific, as was Thompson.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ayshford is yet another 'meh' type player that Cappy loves, never going to create something from nothing. I wonder who the Warriors could use for more impact in that centre position?....???? Hmmmmmmm :think:</p>

[canefan]

Seems Cappy is attracted to journeyman players like himself. Best we get Ivan Cleary back now, he's the closest thing the club has ever had to a safe pair of hands in the coaching department

<p>The winners of the wooden spoon? Newcastle Knights. Awful side.</p>

Lara Pitt is hot. Suddenly the pre and post game show is worth watching

<p>Have you managed to find a pic without the 3cm of make-up on her face to make your analysis?</p>

<p>Ah crap, we're going to get beaten to that as well?</p>

This can't be the same Chad Townsend, he looks like a decent first grade half

[mariner4life]

This is a shit game. The Dragons are awful and the Sharks don't have to be much better to be dominating them

[taniwharugby]

<p>this game and the Storm are the last 2 legs of my low paying multi....</p>

Melbourne humping the titans

<p>Hazem El Mazri was cleared of assault charges, his ex wife opened up on the NRL . I reckon shes right too,<a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/77823416/Hazem-El-Masris-first-wife-unloads-on-NRL-for-not-standing-by-him'>http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/77823416/Hazem-El-Masris-first-wife-unloads-on-NRL-for-not-standing-by-him</a></p>

<p>Billy Slater looks goooonnnneee for the season with shoulder injury.</p>

[mariner4life]

<p>2nd year in a row, that might be it?</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Tigers have started well. I'm getting my hopes way up for this season. Way up.</p>

[JK]

<p>Yeah looked pretty impressive last night. Couldnt understand why they weren't favourites at the TAB paying $2.40 for the win mid day yesterday.</p>

<p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">First home game of the season and it is against the number one rival, Melbourne Storm. Matulino is going to challenge a shoulder charge ruling (wins he gets to play, lose he gets four weeks, do nothing he gets three weeks) and while Vatuvei and Ayshford are named to start, it appears that Konrad and Jonathan Wright will be playing on Sunday afternoon.</p>
