Thank you very much for your preview, Dr. Gonzo, I will have a punt on the Dragons to make the game more interesting.
Looking into the first match today, I understand that Storm and the Sea Eagles are arch rivals and the visitors would love to put the hosts out of the playoff, otherwise having nothing to play for, but I can not appreciate how strong Storm is. Btw, how were they caught overpaying their players? Did they have contracts with the minimum wage, while giving weird bonuses? Did some of the players leave following the ban?
Oh, and is there relegation in the NRL? Or the same teams will play next year too and Storm is safe?

I take it your not from Australia, where you from? I support the Dragons and really believe they are going to beat down the Roosters. In Australia we have a salary cap for our soccer league, NRL, AFL. Similar to NBA salary cap and from what I understand in NBA if you go over you pay luxury tax here you can't go over.

They were doing dodgy business Gonzo might know the details on it.

If Swans do what they did against Richmond I quit.

Giuvara · 08-07-10, 12:58 AM

No, I am Romanian, but I am fascinated by Australia and would like to visit it some day. It really is an amazing country, with awesome, friendly people from what I understand. (sometimes not so friendly with the backpackers

)
I have a new found interest for the NRL and enjoy the games. I like high speed rugby with plenty of action, so I am almost a fan of the NRL.

Absolute bullshit umpiring in Swans game, they lucky to be in front.

TwoWays · 08-07-10, 01:21 AM

Poor Jetta to end the third term. He had it.

GroundnPound · 08-07-10, 01:25 AM

I want him to get one so badly too. Like he is cursed he hits the post when it looks like its going in and then kicks a goal literally a second after the siren.

It is just unbelievable, they will soon have odds on Jetta to kick a goal or not soon.

GroundnPound · 08-07-10, 01:42 AM

FVKKKKKKKKKKKKK YES JETTA gets a goal

WillC · 08-07-10, 01:51 AM

15 v 16 and 1v2

2 close games tonight

GroundnPound · 08-07-10, 01:54 AM

Collingwood and Geelong game is just so hard to call. I have jumped from each side all week. First I am Collingwood then Geelong I just can't pick a side.

West Coast and Brisbane is just like smelling two piles of shit and trying to decide whos shit it is and if you can guess right you win your bet. I couldn't put money on either of them trash cans. But if I had to play something it would be Brisbane +8.5

TONIGHTS GAMES

AFL

GEELONG V COLLINGWOOD: Now that its time to sit down and cuddle up for the evening, what better way to stay warm and fuzzy then a top of the table clash and possibly grand final preview....I can go on about both of these teams but I'm sure you guys know just as much as I do.....Only one thing left to say then....TONIGHTS THE NIGHT THE CATS GET THEIR ASSES KICKED.......

TIP: COLLINGWOOD ML and UNDER 175.5 pts

BRISBANE V WEST COAST: The only good thing about this game is the fact that it's played during the Geelong/Collingwood game.....GEE wonder which game I should watch???.......

TIP: total score OVER 180.5 pts

GOOD LUCK ALL...........................

I'm been sticking with the Aussies over NZ for to long.....Last week hurt deep.....This week I've got nothing left to follow for them....14.5 pts is good, but so is NZ......

If you lean AUSSIES then go for it.....I'm playing dead here......

PS....I prefer EPL, then SerieA , Primera Lg, then Bundsa

TeamTT · 08-07-10, 04:24 AM

Go the warriors!!!

GroundnPound · 08-07-10, 04:28 AM

Its only a one goal lead for Collingwood but that is the biggest square play Geelong -3.5 I just could not take it. I would of taken Geelong -15.5 though.

GroundnPound · 08-07-10, 04:37 AM

Collingwood pressure to re-iterate last weeks words is immense. I can see them losing if their pressure doesn't phase Geelong but right now it is. That is the only way they win.

PASS IT ON · 08-07-10, 04:38 AM

nice try for the Tigers, Go u good things ....
