There was a serious cockup with the NRL fantasy. They have offered those who missed out a separate competition after round 4. Don't know whether I will bother.

Their own fault for having so many Gingers in the side.
Have they still got that dirty piece of pommy ginger filth that tried to bite Billy's ear off?

No idea but remember he is a great player.

From all reports they could have won by 20 points but the Brisbane defense was awesome and that Barba cvnt who left the dogs created the tries for them.

^ It only gets better for the eels?

Penrith must be disappointed, they came close. But they are much improved this year.

Gutsy effort by Manly to beat the Rabbitohs.

The Warriors are pure shite...and they paid a million per season for a fullback that can't take a high ball...guaranteed to let in at least two tries agame

you mean against the Warriors at home...don't think that means much...just run hard down the left flank and they will let you through

Great to see the Dogs bounce back from last weeks embarrassment and beat the sharks by 40 points.

If they ever get their full strength side on the field they will be hard to beat.

Who to tip for Roosters vs Broncos at Suncorp? I'm tempted by the Broncos form, plus its their home game.

SBW is still out, Broncos it is.

I was wrong...he only let in one

^ no sweat I only have one correct tip so far this round.

The dogs got beaten by the chocolate soldiers after the bell.

Two up-and-under tries by Penrith and the dogs gave away 2 penalties in the last minutes to allow Penrith to attack on their line, score a try and kick the sideline conversion after the final whistle.

Looked a good game though and the results this season show the competition is going to be very tight with no easy games.

When the Warriors let Ivan Cleary go to Penrith...John Hart the former All Black coach and retiring football manager of the Warriors lamented the loss saying he dreaded the day when the club finally realised what they had lost...many agreed with him at the time...but that has become a groundswell...he was the most popular player and coach they have ever had and all Warriors fans have wished him well at Penrith...because the club had the chance to keep him...so although we miss him...we secretly admire what he has done and is continuing to do there.

Warriors flog the Tigers 42-18

yeah tigers lead 12-0 at one stage

Don't like either of em,Warriors play the Mighty Sea Eagles next week that will sort them out.

Wrong harbour...they are playing on Botany Bay...the Sharks

The Tigers were a form side going into that one...but came out bruised and battered...and without Tedesco for a while...the try on the half time bell won the game for the Warriors...there was no coming back from that.
