Set to be cut by dragons already due to previous injury

Was a little worried when I first saw pictures in the moonboot.

what a difference 12 months makes. this time last year we would have almost been hoping he was out to force the selectors hand...

I'm worried about the Warrior's prospects this year. I have yet to read about them being the fittest they have ever been. There's no way they will last 80 minutes.

“The way they’ve trained has been unbelievable,” Warriors coach Andrew Webster said.
“We’re fitter, faster, stronger, that’s the truth,” Webster said.
“We’ve got to ask ourselves if we’re executing things better and that’s what we’re about to find out."

Goddam it Andrew....

This kicks off soon and since I haven’t seen the build up don’t really know how this has been played out this year.
I expect fox would be in overdrive as the season begins with the NRL trying to get more gambling pie by playing 2 games in Vegas.First bet should be who goes to morgue first(looks fun for diving wingers)
Followed by who goes to jail post game -
And that’s with the smaller field size
It is 94.5 metres from goalpost to goalpost and 64 metres wide as opposed to 100 metres by 68 metres. The in-goals have also been cut down from eight metres to six-and-half. As for where the length has come off from, foxsports.com.au confirmed with NRL officials that each 10-metre block on the field is instead 9.45 metres — and the referees will adjust the defensive line’s position to ensure it is still at 10 metres.

Is that really all that relevant? A one off special event from a hugely wealthy organisation against a round that most rugby fans agree shouldn't happen, in an area about to lose their team, and in a country that doesn't give a shit about rugby.
Anyway round 1 doesn't kick off properly until 6pm Friday.

Lol what?
One off? It's locked in for 5 years
Super Round should exist It's an awesome concept
In a country that doesn't give a shit about rugby? Unlike the huge rugby league community of the USFact is people will travel for hours to watch the NRL in the states but won't fly for 3 hours to watch their team play rugby.
It's totally relevant. Rugby as a public drawer in australasia is fucked. No one can be fucked.

Anyway the game is turning it on, bunnies v manly is high quality for round 1.

Just rereading my post, I'm not down on Super Rugby, it's been really good to watch. But people just will not go and watch live.
