NRL Telstra Premiership 2006

Bloody panthers. They blew it once again. They really really should have won that one. That is probably their season gone down the drain.

Lol the Rabbits aren't going to come close to a title. Heck they'll probably finish with the spoon again

 

[IloveGilly]

They "probably" will because there is a 99.995% chance they'll get it (considering the odds someone would break the cap is extremely low).

Broncos really are falling apart atm, they have now sacked both Neville Costigan and Brett Seymour. I expected Seymour to go, but Costigan just happened but good to see them making a stance and of course it means we can buy Costigan

It's been very typical of recent seasons that the Broncos fall apart a little bit after Origin.

Raiders do it again in golden point. That should secure a top 8 spot for them at the very least.

Dogs and Storm win again with the Broncos playing much better footy but the Storm were just too good.

I'm a big Warriors supporter, still a very slim chance of making the 8 but unlikely. Next year I'm hoping we can make the 8 and in 2008 we will be top 4 material, just wait.

the storm are starting to really annoy me. The broncos could have won that match played better footy but just werent as good in that second half. Went out way to confirdent

 

[IloveGilly]

Storms are too good. But history tells us all that minor premiers always end up choking.

 

[Iron-Haggis]

Unbelievable that Parramatta are now in the top 4. 8 weeks ago they were 2nd last and were being written off to even make the top 8. It also looks like we may have our top 8 sorted out. 4 point gap between 8th and 9th with only a few more rounds to go. Going to be tough for those teams to make it.

 

[aussie1st]

Storm are just that good, they can put points on from anywhere.
The only side outside the 8 that could still make it is the Sharks. I see them was the easiest of the draws but they have been in a slump.

 

[Iron-Haggis]

I think it's going to be too difficult for teams outside the 8 to make it. Sharks, Panthers and Cowboys are all in fairly poor form and would need to do something very special to make it now.

 

[aussie1st]

Good old Joey is facing a 3 match ban for swearing at the officials. That there could be the Knights season. Johns is going to contest and I suspect he will get it downgraded to a 2 week ban.

Also the Raiders have signed Steve Irwin, crikey!

 

[Iron-Haggis]

Well without Johns that could put some pressure on the Knights, but they do have that 4 point buffer. But they only really need one more victory to secure a place in the finals and they have a positive for and against.

Warriors go up against the Storm this weekend, the Storm have won about 15 at home but I reckon the Warriors have a good show after defeating the Cowboys 26-0 last weekend.
