weird round
There are clearly two very different Cowboys teams. The one that got towelled up by the Warriors at home last week, and the one that went to Canberra and smoked the Raiders.
Brisbane are cooked. Too many injuries. Riki should have been sent off for that shot as well.
The Bunnies are dragging themselves off the canvas
The Tigers won spoonbowl
The Roosters were too good for the Eels in a pretty fun game
Manly too good for the Dragons as you would expect despite their ladder positions going in top the game
And for something new and different Penrith wonFor all the parity and closeness in this league, i look forward to Penrith v Melbourne at the end of the season

Origin teams:
NSW swing the axe.
Nicho Hynes gets rissoled for not turning up in Game 1, and being shit at club land since then too. Mitch Moses in the halfback
McInnes dropped for Cam Murray, which isn't a surprise.
Latrell is back at centreApparently the only changes for Qld is Hopgood is hurt so Kaufusi is in, and for some reason Cobbo out and Kurt Capewell in. Capewell is a stupid inclusion IMO.

No real surprise in NSW teams, Latrell forced his inclusion.
For Qld though, Cobbo supposedly playing through injections hence dropped and replaced in squad by Gagai. What the hell Capewell has done this year is beyond me. Fafita must have done something seriously bad somewhere.
Curiously again on coaches. Billy drops an in form player for playing with needles (eg not 100% fit), anyone watching Edwards yesterday and think that he was anywhere close to his top fitness has to be kidding themselves. Lets see how this selection plays out.

Should really only be Penrith or Melbourne who top the table. A heap of teams could beat them on their day in this weird comp, but minor premiers down to two teams

Rumour mill time, D Brown told Parra not going to extend and looking to join Warriors from 2026, but might try get out earlier. Sauce is generally good on all things Parra
-
Obviously devo he's not getting to play for T-Baz
-
Im waiting for the Lomax backflip if that happens, especially now Dragons picked up Cook

This is so hard to watch.
After 30 minutes we get our first set inside the Titans 20 and we come up with an error on tackle 2, then give away a penalty and put the Titans hot on attack and they score again.
24-0.
I can’t watch any more of this, I’m turning it off.

Glad I’m not on the Warriors bandwagon. They seem inconsistent as ever. Not sure why they get so much hype in the media these days.
