NRL Discussion

20398 Views 346 Posts Social
We've had many threads involving NRL, but never a general discussion and with the trials starting. What better time to make one.

I'm watching Dragons vs Souths now... only because they're not televising the good game, being Roosters and Tigers

Picks for the year my fellow New South Welshmen? Premiers, Wooden Spoons? If I had to put money on it, I'd go Roosters this year, Tigers will still definitely win though, we're leading the Roosters 12-6 and it's only ten minutes in. [MOG]
FINALLY PARRA!

The term "one-man team" has never been more effective.
well i got 5 wins from 8 games, not too bad.. tipping wise..
darn dragons tho [Facepalm]

I would replace Buderus with someone else. I think his time has passed.

yeah i do that.. i had 4 this past weekend [Facepalm]

what the heck is happening to my dragons @_@
Dragons aren't going well at all. Eagles regained some of their dignity on Monday, finally!

Every team will have their ups and downs. Except for Melbourne....don't know what is up with that team but they just don't seem to lose!
im still picking dragons friday night , over knights, although ill probably regret it [Facepalm]

IIRC Kieran, Lyon doesn't want to play rep footy anymore.

I wouldn't mind seeing Hayne switch to Centre for NSW and have us give James McManus or Ferguson a go on the wing.

This is the NSW team I'd like to see:
1 Brett Morris (I'd much prefer Dugan here but I'd rather bring him in on game 2 after we're sure he's fit)
2 Blake Ferguson/James McManus (Both very underrated and one of them should play Origin this year. Probably Ferguson)
3 Michael Jennings
4 Jarryd Hayne
5 Akuila Uate
6 Todd Carney
7 Luke Walsh/Mitchell Pearce
8 Michael Weyman
9 Issac De Gois (He's tough and probably more consistent then Farah or Buderus)
10 Paul Gallen
11 Anthony Watmough
12 Ben Creagh
13 Greg Bird
Interchange
Luke Lewis
Kurt Gidley
Kade Snowden
Trent Merrin

Dragons'll come good when Cooper and Fien come back. Anyway, my 2c :)
Didn't realise Cooper was out.

Despite how good of a player he is, he is a total ****head in real life so I would replace Carney with someone else.
Carney has been playing pretty well. I'd guess most of these guys are idiots in real life.

Just so long as Soward doesn't come back in. We picked him last year for one reason. To kick and he didn't even do that. Besides, if Greg Inglis decided to run at him...

Campese, Maloney, or Wallace could all replace Carney. Wouldn't personally play Mullen at Five-Eighth.
I would pick Campese.

lol true aye, but he's pretty much scum.
well, so far this round got 3 wins..
Damn it Manly....
What the hell Manly [Facepalm]
I just looked at the score...I don't like the fact that the teams they're losing to are near the bottom of the ladder!

I cant figure it out either ... only 4 again this weekend..yuk. :P [Shifty] [Facepalm]
Dammit Parra! So close but execution kills our chances.

Ended up with 5 tips this week, should have picked Cowboys to thump Roosters.
**** the Storm beating Bulldogs 6-12.

Tigers beat Panthers 30-0.
Because Farah went off with a concusion.... **** we need a new captain who wont kick on the third....
How did Boyd get picked for Aus? Just going with what they know I guess but he's been pretty useless this season and most of last.

Methinks Smithie needs to leave the Roosters now. No structure [Facepalm]
Who knows what goes through the Selectors heads when they pick a team.
