Ducks and Drakes

I think it is interesting looking at the ladder in this final round. Bit like a game of poker, do we show our hand, call the other team’s bluff, or even let a game go?  I mean seriously GC 36- New 6?  Alternatively, relying on Cronulla to beat Canberra would seem nuts, another twist, Roosters go down to Souths, we win, they remain in 4th and play Penrith, we face Storm. Interested in others thoughts around this unusual final round and whether certain teams are possibly throwing games.

        • Roosters will lift next week there to good a side.But if friend is out that’s a massive loss as verills is out also

      • As they kept reminding us eels fans last year. No team has won a premiership when they have had 50 points put on them through the season

    • Slugg are Parra resting players also

    • My thoughts exactly 

    • I think we can beat storm at Suncorp. We have a big following up here and I would certainly be going. Also we love a dry track and that's what it would more than likely be up here

  • A well choreagraphed victory !

     

  • I've thought for a long time that the Storm are the team to beat and all the others are fighting for the chance to play them in the GF

    How many mistakes does Keary have in him when his forwards aren't dominating

    • Hahaha deadset set up if I've ever seen one

      They want to play them in the GF not week 1 and potentially get busted up.

  • Foxing it or not (definitely foxing it) 60-8 is dead set embarrassing. To make the joke worse rabbits were robbed of two tries could of been in the 70's

"What if the NRL set up a system where players who are locally developed and make it to 1st grade, those players are exempt from the cap? That would force clubs to develop more from within rather than poach from other clubs. Just a thought."
