    Bunnies v Cowboys was a cracker, won with a last gasp field goal.

    The Cowboys will not enjoy the review of their last 3 minutes

    @mariner4life For a pack full of rep players, the Cowboys are a bit soft in that area. The Bunnies were terrible but almost every time they got in the Cows half they scored. The Bunnies backs Mitchell, Johnston, Graham and Walker were very poor I thought.

          so the top 8 looks pretty set now. I can't see any team falling out, and i can't see any jumping up. Tigers to come 9th again.

          I think the Roosters will drop out of the top 4. They are so fucked by injury there's not way they hold out the Raiders. If they can get some troops back they can still win it all, but that's looking unlikely now.

          Melbourne again look like they will play the GF. Probably against Parra or Penrith.

          The coaching merry-go-round looks like being fun. Surely there will be another job open up in Qld. Guys like Green will be naming their price.

          Heard Nathan Brown on his weekly spot on MMM yesterday. He spoke pretty well about his hopes for next year, and how he sees his team forming. I am cautiously optimistic.

We need to be perpetually, bitterly disappointed. So that if, not when, but if, there is a glimmer of hope we are reasonably pessimistic when it occurs. Then when that hope goes down in a ball of flames and carnage, it's palatable.

                @mariner4life I will feel good about the Warriors chances next year only if word comes out that the players are fitter than they have ever been.

                  @raznomore Fuck knows what will happen if we ever won the bloody thing - the disappointment involved with being a Warriors fan is a key part of my psyche. Maybe I'll have to start watching The Walking Dead again.

                              So the Warriors who have been spnsored by Vodafone for ages have to go out and find a new sponsor? That is crazy?

                                @Hooroo The truth hurts ay? The NRL are just piston wristed gibbons and the Warriors a token team. I watch it but I have such low expectations I'm not sure why.

                                The winner will generally be the club that has the best accountants to hide the salary cap breaches.

                                    i heard a couple of rumours we were sniffing around Tevita Pangai Jr now that he has tanked his career

                                    I hope to god we don't. Kid seems like locker room cancer.

                                    Pangai Jnr, Lodge, De Belin. What are Todd Carney and Tim Simona doing these days?

                                    my guess is, these boys aren't going to be in high demand because of the baggage that comes with, so the Warriors think they are a chance of nabbing them. All can play.

                                    Well, except Lodge.

                                      Not sure about Lodge. Smarter league brains than mine have suggested Lodge has been left behind by the increase in speed this year. That along with his dicky knee means he may well be a dud.

                                        Sounds like a Warriors player to me!

                                          exactly my point

                                          he's been massively found out. and usually takes out his frustration with a cheap shot that results in a penalty.

                                          dud
