Go The Cowboys!

I feel sorry for Benji. It must suck getting injured all the time. They showed him in the dressing room - looked pretty devestated so it might be pretty bad.

 

[MeKaChrOme]

The QLD team should be interesting...

Marshall is out 6-8 weeks.... Going to be a tough time for the tigers.

 

[Goreripper]

Thurston is a genius. The Cowboys are going to be almost unstoppable this year.

 

[Goreripper]

The Tigers' season is over now.

I just heard he was out for the season on the radio.

 

[Winmar]

Dang that's a shame.

I wish the AFL was up and down like the NRL is. It's nuts how form can fluctuate so much from year to year.

 

[Goreripper]

My Top 8:

Cowboys
Knights
Roosters
Panthers
Broncos
Storm
Bulldogs
Sea Eagles

 

[Spiff]

Knights vs Cowboys at Newcastle next week. The toughest game to pick in a long, long time.

 

[Bucko]

The Tigers' season is over now.

NO we still have about 19 games to go

 

[Spiff]

I don't buy into this whole "Tigers are useless without Benji" thing. Those stats don't really take into account the fact that they were an inconsistent team at best before 2005, so of course they were losing games without him. They were losing games *with* him as well.

Wait until he's played 100 games for the club before comparing the Tigers' ability to play without him with the Knights' ability to play without Johns.

 

[MeKaChrOme]

I haven't heard anything about Marshall benig out for the season.. BUt to be honest I"m surprised the tigers managed to win the premiership last year, even with Marshall. I think they are going to struggle with or without him this year..

And the Knights without Johns - if Buderus gets injured, there's trouble as well...

 

[KoichCPA]

Manly are just fuckin great.

 

[Spiff]

I haven't heard anything about Marshall benig out for the season..

Depends on whether or not he needs surgery.

[Goreripper]

I'm with you there Matt. Raiders v. Warriors is the "who cares?" match of the round.

 

[MeKaChrOme]

I dunno, Bulldogs vs Rabbits is another 'who cares'...
I'm tipping the Broncos to get over Roosters, and Dragons to return to better form. Otherwise I agree

 

[Spiff]

I don't really care about any of them much, to be honest. Rugby league kinda bores me these days.

 

[Goreripper]

I dunno, Bulldogs vs Rabbits is another 'who cares'...

Nah.
