    NRL 2013

    Kicking off the NRL 2013 thread, with the All Star game this weekend and the season around the corner, it's time for your early predictions.

    I'm a Cowboys fan, the team looks good and I expect JT's last season at the helm before he takes a lucrative offer elsewhere. Tate and Bowen are healthy, Matt Scott and Tamou are looking bigger than ever and Lui is back after belting his mrs last year, so this has gotta be North Queensland's year!

    Who do you support and how do you see them performing in 2013

    Good news for the Storm with Bellamy re-signing until 2016 for reportedly around 8 million.Now for the World Club championship.

    Bring on Leeds.

    Two million per year, nice work if you can get it!

    I wonder if that finally brought a smile to Bellyache's face??

    Great start to the season for my Bulldog man Ben Barba scoring three tries for the indigenous all stars verses the white all stars.

    33 to 6 is quite a flogging.

    The only thing to put a smile on Bellyaches boat race would be the demise of one David Gallop.

    Congrats on the form of Barba,LT.Going to be an interesting year picking rep fullbacks.Slater or Barba.Tried and tested versus new and ?????.Hard to say who is the most exciting.
    You're fat,Ill fro you in the river

    Yes, Queensland certainly look like they have a wealth of talent which is almost embarrassing for their selectors.

    I think Slater will get the FB spot, but you gotta have Barba in the team somewhere.

    If you look at how Melbourne and Queensland play when they are attacking Slater is up with the play acting as a pivot or distributor with one of the wingers dropping back to cover fullback.

    I reckon Slater would make a perfect five eight as he is not as quick as he once was and Barba is an out and out attacking fullback.

    But then where will Thurston play? Push him back to half back and then you have to decide what to do with Cronk?

    I presume True / Setanta will be carrying some of the NRL again this year? Don't recall having seen it advertised as yet.

    I reckon, and particularly as he is getting a bit long in the tooth make a great lock forward.

    There is no way Queensland can overlook Barba who is an absolute match winner.

    I wish NSW had this problem and no I am not a lebo.

    Might be something other than Setanta. From memory I think they only showed a 'Game of the Week / Round' last season?
