    While i still think NSW look better on paper, this is a much better pack. Younger legs, and more aggression will help a lot. I am interedted to see if Hess can throw himself around at this level, he's been fucking great this year.

    Slater will be fullback, holmes and boyd on the wings, and gagai to centre. Defensively better, and also better on attack.

    NSW in a much closer one

        Manly release Nate Myles effective immediately, and have signed Toafafoa Siply from the Warriors as a replacement.

        Reports Myles will join the Storm (who do very well out of old players)

          Myles will do well at Storm. Stink that the Warriors lost Sipley but Manly offered him more money.

                Yay, no more stinking up the Kiwis now.

                Man. He's had a quick fall from grace, from next big thing at Manly, to the Panthers and now to the retirement league.

                  Surprised the Knights didn't offer him a contract. Would rather have him than Kata right now tbh, Kata has struggled big time this season.

                        @booboo Yup - he's been released from his contract and joins the French club this week. Fat lot of use he was.

                          I think I'd have him over Kata as well. I told everyone Kata was shit but he fooled everyone last year because he ran hard.

                              Penalties proving costly to both sides. A try each on field position provided by penalties

                                      A game NSW should have won but lost 18-16 because they chose to go conservative in the second half and Queensland were allowed to attack wave after wave on the NSW defence.
